Answer by askmemath(368) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1dy = 24hours
1 hour = 60mins
1 minute = 60sec
So 1 day = 24x60x60 sec = 86400
You have 1 million sec = 1,000,000 secs
Dividing 1million by 86400 gives u approx 11.57 days
1 year = 365 days
11.57days = 11.57/365
Hope this helps
