which of the following calculations could be used to find the number of seconds in a week?

Question

a.) 60 x 24
b.) 60 x 60 x 24
c.) 60 x 60 x 7
d.) 60 x 60 x 24 x 7

Answer 1

well, 60 seconds in a minute x 60 minutes in an hour x 24 hours in a day x 7 days a week. take a guess.

Answer 2

This all gets easier if you keep track of units:

1 minute = 60 seconds
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 day = 24 hours
1 week = 7 days

So, 1 week = 7*(24 hours) = 7*24*60 minutes = 7*24*60*60 seconds

Answer 3

Allright, i took physics. It is really easy, you just have to work everything out. 60 seconds are in one minute. use s for seconds, and m for minutes. 60s/m. This means there are 60 seconds in a minute. there are 60 minutes in an hour. There are 24 hours in a day. There are 7 days in a week.
Now for your equation. s is seconds, m is minutes, h is hour, d is day, w is week.
60s/m * 60m/h*24h/d*7d/w. Minutes, hours, and days will cancel out, and you will have 60*60*24*7 seconds per week.

Answer 4

let's think about this:

1 week * 7 days/week * 24 hours/day * 60 minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute = ___ seconds....

so i would say D.

Answer 5

A is minutes in a day
B is seconds in a day
C is seconds in 7 hours
D is seconds in a week.

I would say D.

Answer 6

D.
seconds x minutes x hours x days

Answer 7

D is the correct answer.

Answer 8

That will be D

Answer 9

It's D.

Answer 10

answer d
