To convert 1 second into days, we can follow these steps:
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understand the relationship between days, hours, minutes, and seconds**:
- 1 day = 24 hours
- 1 hour = 60 minutes
- 1 minute = 60 seconds
2. **Calculate the total number of seconds in one day**:
- First, convert days to hours:
\[
1 \text{ day} = 24 \text{ hours}
\]
- Next, convert hours to minutes:
\[
24 \text{ hours} = 24 \times 60 \text{ minutes} = 1440 \text{ minutes}
\]
- Finally, convert minutes to seconds:
\[
1440 \text{ minutes} = 1440 \times 60 \text{ seconds} = 86400 \text{ seconds}
\]
3. **Find the fraction of a day that 1 second represents**:
- Since 1 day = 86400 seconds, to find out how many days are in 1 second, we can set up the following equation:
\[
\text{Days} = \frac{1 \text{ second}}{86400 \text{ seconds/day}}
\]
- This simplifies to:
\[
\text{Days} = \frac{1}{86400}
\]
4. **Final Answer**:
- Therefore, 1 second is equal to \(\frac{1}{86400}\) days.
### Summary:
1 second = \(\frac{1}{86400}\) days.
