Some people love classic cars and antique cars. An antique car is a car that is 25 years old or older. Estimate how many hours it takes

for a car to become an antique. Remember that there are 365 days in a year and 24 hours in a day.

Answer 1

We have been given that an antique car is a car that is 25 years old or older. We are asked to find the hours it will take a car to become an antique.

We know that 1 year equal to 365 days.

1 day is equal to 24 hours.

To find number of hours in 1 year we will multiply 365 by 24.

`\text{Hours in 1 year}=365* 24`

`\text{Hours in 1 year}=8760`

Now we will multiply hours in one year by 25 to find hours in 25 years.

`\text{Hours in 25 year}=\text{Hours in 1 year}* 25`

`\text{Hours in 25 year}=8760* 25`

`\text{Hours in 25 year}=219,000`

Therefore, it will take
`219,000` hours for a car to become an antique.
