Algebra.Com's Answer #775363 by Theo(13342)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1,000,000,000,000 miles / 100 miles per hour = 1 * 10^10 hours = 10,000,000,000 hours = 10 billion hours. \n" ); document.write( "1 * 10^10 hours / 24 = 416,666,666.7 = 416 million 666 thousand 666.7 days. \n" ); document.write( "416,666,666.7 / 365 = 1,141,552.511 = 1 million 141 thousand 552.511 years. \n" ); document.write( "note that: \n" ); document.write( "365 days in a year is assumed. \n" ); document.write( "the real number of days in a year is not exactly that. \n" ); document.write( "note also that: \n" ); document.write( "if you divide days by 7 to get weeks and you divide weeks by 52 to get years, your number of days in a year will be equal to 7 * 52 = 364. \n" ); document.write( "bottom line: \n" ); document.write( "if you want your answer in number of hours, the answer will be 1 * 10^10 hours which is equal to 10 billion hours. \n" ); document.write( "your answer in days will be exact since the number of hours in a day is always 24 according to our clocks. \n" ); document.write( "your number of days in a year will be approximate and will be different depending on whether you assume number of days / 363 or you assume number of days / 7 for number of days in a week / 52 for number of weeks in a year. \n" ); document.write( " |
