Hi Student!

Looking at the question we can see that we are given a number which is 120 days. The question is asking for us to convert the amount of days it took to break the code into hours. We can do this by multiplying the amount of days that we have by 24 because there are 24 hours in a day. The days would cancel and that would result us with just hours left.


120\ days*(24\ hours)/(1\ day)


(120\ days\ *\ 24\ hours)/(1\ day)


(2880\ hours)/(1)


2880\ hours

Therefore, our final answer is that it took the computer 2880 hours to break the code after we converted the days to hours.
