Problem

Convert the time given below 3 hours is equal to how many seconds.

Step

Write down the number of hours you want to convert to seconds. In this case, we have

3 hours

Hint

For every hour, there are 60 minutes according to the conversion factor

1 hour = 60 minutes

Hint

For every minute, there are 60 seconds according to the conversion factor

1 minute = 60 seconds

Formula:

Convert hours to minutes:

\$ 3 "hours" times 60 "minutes"/ "hour" = 180 "minutes" \$

Step

Convert minutes to seconds:

\$ 180 "minutes" x 60 "seconds"/ "minute" = 10,800 "seconds" \$

Step

So, 3 hours is equal to 10,800 seconds.
