A day on Neptune lasts less than 17 hours because the planet rotates at a very high speed. Because of this, it rotates once every 17 hours or so, making its day shorter than a day on Earth.
there are 24hours in a whole day. You want 17 hours as a fraction of a whole day so the answer is 17/ 24
Four planets hold this distinction: Jupiter (9 hours, 55 minutes) Saturn (10 hours, 33 minutes) Uranus (17 hours, 14 minutes) Neptune (16 hours, 6 minutes)
17 hours is almost a half a day
Neptune has 14 known moons. The largest moon of Neptune is Triton, which was discovered in 1846, just 17 days after the planet itself was discovered.
The length of a day on a planet is how long it takes to spin on its axis. The length of a day on Mercury is 58 days and 15 hours in Earth time. A day on Venus is 243 Earth days, Mars is 24 hours 39 minutes and 35 seconds, Jupiter's day is 9.9 Earth hours, Saturn is 10 hours and 47 minutes, Uranus is 17 hours 14 minutes and 24 seconds, and Neptune's day is 16 hours 6 minutes and 36 seconds.
Gas planets typically rotate faster than Earth. For example, Jupiter rotates the quickest with a day length of about 10 hours, Saturn has a day length of about 10.7 hours, Uranus about 17 hours, and Neptune about 16 hours. In comparison, Earth rotates once every 24 hours.
About 17 hours.

408 hoursThere are 17 times 24 = 408 hours
17/96 of a day.
There are 24 hours in one day, so 41 hours would be 1,7 days, or 1 day and 17 hours.
