How much longer is a yard than a meter?
It is not. A yard is 0.9144 metres, whioch means that it is just over 9/10 as long as a metre
40 weeks are 40x7=280 days. 280 days are 280x24=6720 hours. 6720 hours are 6720x60=403200 minutes
How many minutes are in 4 hours and 46 minutes?
One hour is 60 minutes, so 60x4=240. 240+46= 286 minutes
How many secods is there in 1 hour and 15 minutes?
there are 60 seconds in one minute; 3600 seconds in one hour
at 1 hr 15 minutes that is 3600 + 15x60 = 4500 seconds
How many minutes is 7 hours 41 minutes?
There are 60 minutes in one hour, so 7 hours is 420 minutes. 420 +41 is 461 minutes.
What uses mutation rates to measure evolutionary time?
"Molecular clocks" can be used to estimate the time at which two lineages diverged. Often, the calibration of the clock uses fossil evidence to gauge a timeframe for the existence of a common ancestor of a number of lineages. From this, an average mutation rate can be calculated. This average mutation rate can then be used to estimate the timeframe for further branching points in the genealogy of the lineages in question.
For instance, fossil evidence could be used to establish a timeframe for the existence of a common ancestor to all great apes. By dividing the sum of all differences in a particular genomic sequence for all great apes by the time between then and now, we get an average rate. We can then take the differences between that genomic sequence in men and Neanderthals to estimate when Neanderthals diverged from us.
How many minutes are in 1 hour 50 mins?
One hour = 60 minutes, so 60 minutes + 50 minutes = 110 minutes.
3 days
1 day = 24 hours
73 hours = 73 hours * 1 day/24 hours = 3.042 days
3 days and 1 hour
There are about twelve million minutes in 23 years. Depending on which 23 years you are measuring, the length of 23 calendar years can range from a minimum of 12,094,560 minutes to a maximum of 12,097,440 minutes. 23 average calendar years is about 12,096,832 minutes long, and 23 actual tropical years is equal to about 12,096,821 minutes.
How many hours is 178 minutes?
Just divide the number of minutes by 60.
Add:
1h = 60min
To find hours from minutes.
178min x 1h/60min = 2.97h
To find minutes from 0.97 hour.
0.97h x 60min/h = 58min
178min = 2h and 58min
