write a formula that converts x days into y seconds?

Question

I need to know this for a test I am supposed to be completing soon....

Update:

Should I have not said that?

Answer 1

Favorite Answer

x(y) = y∙ (1day/86400sec) : this converts seconds into days

y(x) = x∙ (86400sec/1day) : this converts days into seconds

Answer 2

y = (8.64 x 10^4)x

one day is:

24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds = 8.64 x 10^4 seconds

so add an x and for every day you fill in for x, you get the amount of y seconds.

Answer 3

Eg.

1 day --> 24 hours --> 24h*60min=1440min --> 1440min*60sec--> 86400s

Therefore, if 1 day = 86400sec

x days = 86400y seconds

All the best!

Answer 4

Wish you hadn't said it is for a test.
