Conversion factors needed to determine the number of seconds in one year

The number of seconds in one year are 31,536,000 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 year=365 days

1 day=24 hours

1 hour=60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

so

Convert year to days

1 year=1*365=365 days

Convert days to hours

365 days=365*24=8,760 hours

Convert hours to minutes

8,760 hours=8,760*60=525,600 minutes

Convert minutes to seconds

525,600 minutes=525,600*60=31,536,000 seconds

therefore

1 year=365 (24) (60) (60)

1 year=31,536,000 seconds
