              The relationship between different units of time given below helps you for their conversion.


                  1 minute      = 60 seconds                        1 fortnight     = 2 weeks = 14 days
                  1 hour        = 60 minutes                        1 year          = 12 months

                  1 day         = 24 hours                          1 year          = 365 days
                  1 week        = 7 days                            1 leap year     = 366 days

              Conversion of Higher Units into Lower Units

              To convert higher units of time into lower units, we multiply.
              example 1: Convert the following:

                    (a)  15 minutes into seconds                     (b)  8 minutes 52 seconds into seconds

                    (c)  2 hours 23 minutes 19 seconds into seconds
              Solution:

                    (a)  Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

                         So, 15 minutes = (15 × 60) seconds = 900 seconds
                    (b)  8 minutes 52 seconds = 8 minutes + 52 seconds

                                   = (8 × 60) seconds + 52 seconds

                                   = 480 seconds + 52 seconds = 532 seconds

                    (c)  2 hours 23 minutes 19 seconds

                             = 2 hours + 23 minutes + 19 seconds
                             = (2 × 60) minutes + 23 minutes + 19 seconds

                             = (120 minutes + 23 minutes) + 19 seconds

                             = 143 minutes + 19 seconds = (143 × 60) seconds + 19 seconds

                             = 8580 seconds + 19 seconds = 8599 seconds
