@jim_thompson5910

Can we work on Part 2 now?

Answer 1

sure

Answer 2

I know there are 315,360,000 seconds in a year but I'm unsure how to express it by showing work lol

Answer 3

well we need to somehow go from seconds to years

so we need to find equations that connect the two

Answer 4

so how many seconds are in a minute?
how many minutes are in an hour?
etc etc
keep going until you get to years

Answer 5

60 seconds in an hour

24 hours in a day
365 days in a year

Answer 6

60 seconds = 1 minute (not 1 hour)

Answer 7

Oops sorry haha

Answer 8

no worries

Answer 9

60 seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 hour
24 hours = 1 day
365 days = 1 year (assuming nonleap year)

Answer 10

you'll use those equations to convert seconds to years

Answer 11

oh you're going the other way around, years to seconds

Answer 12

I all that had to be in there but I just wasn't sure how to do it

Answer 13

Start with 1 year

Answer 14

multiply by the conversion factor (365 days/1 year)
