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

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.

Eg.
1 day --> 24 hours --> 24h*60min=1440min --> 1440min*60sec--> 86400s
Therefore, if 1 day = 86400sec
x days = 86400y seconds
All the best!
