To convert one million seconds to years, follow these steps:
- Understand the basic units of time:
- 1 minute = 60 seconds
- 1 hour = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds
- 1 day = 24 hours = 86,400 seconds
- 1 year = 365 days = 31,536,000 seconds
- Calculate the number of seconds in a year:
1 year = 365 days × 24 hours/day × 60 minutes/hour × 60 seconds/minute = 31,536,000 seconds
- Divide one million seconds by the number of seconds in a year:
1,000,000 seconds ÷ 31,536,000 seconds/year ≈ 0.0317 years
So, one million seconds is approximately 0.0317 years.
