Understanding Years and Hours

Time is unique among measurement systems because it isn't decimal: 60 seconds make a minute, 60 minutes an hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This mixed-base system means converting between distant units (like seconds to days) requires chaining several factors, which is exactly what the table below does for you.
