How many minutes are in 2 hours?
There are 60 minutes in one hour, so multiply 60 times 2.
There are 120 minutes in 2 hours.
How many seconds are in a year?
There are 31,536 000 seconds in an "ordinary" calendar year.
There are 31,622,400 seconds in a "Leap" calendar year
There are 31,556,000 seconds (rounded) in earth's orbital revolution. That is the true length of one year - and you may say your calendar doesn't show another .242199 days, but that is the time it takes for the Earth to make one complete revolution around the Sun. However, your calendar is not wrong. The Earth rotates 360 degrees in precisely 24 hours, yes, but as it moves around the Sun, the angle is slightly different and needs to turn one more degree to complete a "solar day".
By the Gregorian Year
The Gregorian calendar uses a year 365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes and 12 seconds long. This is equal to 31,556,952 seconds.
The Lighter Side
As a trick question.. The answer would be 12 or 24 "seconds" in a year :
2nd of JAN, 2nd of FEB, and so forth = 12 (2nd of each month)
22nd Jan , 22nd Feb till 22nd Dec = 24 (2nd and 22nd of each month)
There are 31536000 seconds in 1 year.
1 year = 31,556,926 seconds.
60sec*60min*24hr*365day = 31,536,000 seconds.
31536000 seconds. 31622400 in a leap year.
Why are watches adjusted to ten past ten in any advertisement?
Many years ago they were set at 12.00 o'clock but someone realised that ten minutes to ten looks like a smiling face and thus more customer friendly. Watches and clocks for sale have been so set ever since.
The symmetry of the hands of the watchface makes for a subconciously pleasing effect.
Also when many watches are displayed they are all at the same time to look neat and uniform. So it's become an industry standard.

How many years are in a millenium?
A millennium is one thousand years. Beware that many people confuse a millennium being a million years due to the fact that millennium contains part of the word million in it. Put in numbers, a millennium is 1,000 years.
How many days are there in a decade?
Since each year is 365 days (except in Leap years) and there are 10 years in a decade , there are 10x 365 day + 2 or 3 leap days, depending on which 10 years you choose.
So...
3652 or 3653 days in a decade.
How long would it take to walk across the world?

How many seconds in three centuries?
By mathematical computation, at 60 seconds per minute, 60 minutes per hour, 24 hours per day, and 365.25 days per year, the answer would be : 31,557,600 seconds per year, 3,155,760,000 per century, and 9,467,280,000 in three centuries. However, by the more precise definition (which requires adjustment of the calendar with "leap seconds" and omitted "leap days"), there are 31556925.9747 seconds in a standard SI year, which equals 3,155,692,597 (and a fraction) per century and 9,467,077,792(and a fraction) in three centuries.
