The correct Answer is:
To find out how many seconds are in one day, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the number of hours in a day**: - We know that there are 24 hours in one day. \[ \text{Hours in one day} = 24 \text{ hours} \] 2. **Convert hours to minutes**: - We know that each hour has 60 minutes. \[ \text{Minutes in one hour} = 60 \text{ minutes} \] 3. **Calculate the total minutes in one day**: - To find the total minutes in one day, multiply the number of hours by the number of minutes in an hour. \[ \text{Total minutes in one day} = 24 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 1440 \text{ minutes} \] 4. **Convert minutes to seconds**: - We know that each minute has 60 seconds. \[ \text{Seconds in one minute} = 60 \text{ seconds} \] 5. **Calculate the total seconds in one day**: - To find the total seconds in one day, multiply the total minutes by the number of seconds in a minute. \[ \text{Total seconds in one day} = 1440 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 86400 \text{ seconds} \] ### Final Answer: Thus, one day is equal to **86400 seconds**. ---
