Question

How do you convert 16 weeks to seconds?

Answer 1

Hint: In the given question, we have been given to convert a given number of weeks to seconds. We are going to solve that by first converting one day to seconds, then by converting the given number of weeks to days, and then multiplying the number of seconds in a day by the total number of days.

Complete step by step answer:
We have to convert \[16\] weeks to seconds.
First, we convert one day to seconds.
For that, we first convert one hour to seconds and then multiply by the number of hours in a day - \[24\].
Number of seconds in an hour \[ = 60 \times 60 = 3600\]
Now, number of seconds in a day \[ = 24 \times 3600 = 86,400\]
Now, we convert the number of days in \[16\] weeks.
Number of days in \[16\] weeks \[ = 16 \times 7 = 112\]
Now, we multiply the number of seconds in a day by the number of days.

Total number of seconds in \[16\] weeks \[ = 112 \times 86,400 = 9,676,800\].

Note: In the given question we had to convert sixteen weeks to seconds. First, we converted one day to seconds. For that, we converted one hour to seconds and multiplied it by the number of hours in a day – twenty-four. Then we converted sixteen weeks to days. Then we multiplied the number of days by the number of seconds and we got our answer.
