Question

Show how to use unit multipliers to convert 4 hours to seconds.

Answer 1

Answer:

4 hours = 14400 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) In 1 hour there are 60 minutes

ii) in 1 minute there are 60 seconds

iii) therefore 1 hour = 60 minutes

                               = 60 $\times$ 60 seconds

                               = 3600 seconds

iv) therefore to convert 4 hours to seconds we have to multiply the number of hours by 3600 seconds

      therefore 4 hours = 4 $\times$ 3600 seconds = 14400 seconds.
