Answer: Mia is 13 years, 4 months and 7 days old

Step-by-step explanation:

60 minutes in an hour

24 hours in a day (60 x 24 = 1440 minutes)

30 days in a mouth (1440 x 30 = 43,200 minutes)

360 days in a year (1440 x 365 = 525,600 minutes)

To find out how many years old she is we must divide the number of minutes old she is by the number of minutes in a year.

7015680 / 525,600 = 13 years with a remainder of 182,880 minutes

To find out how many months old she is we must divide the remaining minutes by the number of minutes in a month.

182,880 / 43,200 = 4 months with a remainder of 10,080 minutes

To find out how many days old she is we must divide the remaining minutes by the number of minutes in a day.

10,080 / 1440 = 7 days
