How many minutes in eighty years?

Answer 1

By clock, 42,076,800 minutes. By year definition 42,075,936. By SI, 42,075,901.3 minutes. Calendar and ClockFor an entire block of eighty years, containing twenty leap years, the number of minutes would be the same as in eighty Julian years of 365.25 days. The number of minutes is calculated by calendar and clock is 42,076,800. 80 years x 365.25 days/year x 24 hours/day x 60 minutes/hour = 42,076,800 Or 80 times the number of minutes in a year, which is calculated as 525,960. SI or Leap Years Approaching the question from an SI perspective, the answer would be slightly different. This is because the definition of a year is 31,556,926 standard seconds, while the standard for Leap year calculation is set at 365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes, and 12 seconds (31,556,952 seconds). Instead of having 525,960 clock minutes, you would have 525948.766 (division) or 525949.2 (standard) minutes. For 80 years, the results would be 42,075,901.333 or 42,075,936 minutes. The small variation between clock/calendar minutes and the measured length of the year only becomes important when the two diverge by enough to subtract an entire day from the normal Leap Year system. Years that are divisible by 100 are not Leap Years unless they are also divisible by 400.

Answer 2
