To convert the given time duration into seconds per minute (s/min) first we need to convert all parts of the duration into seconds and then find out how many minutes that totals to.
Let's break it down:
-
Days to seconds:
- 1 day = 24 hours
- 1 hour = 3600 seconds
- Therefore, 2 days = \( 2 \times 24 \times 3600 = 172800 \) seconds
-
Years to seconds:
- 1 year typically is considered as 365 days (not accounting for leap years)
- Therefore, 2 years = \( 2 \times 365 \times 24 \times 3600 = 63115200 \) seconds
-
Minutes to seconds:
- 30 minutes = \( 30 \times 60 = 1800 \) seconds
-
Seconds:
- 30 seconds = 30 seconds
Now, let's add everything together:
\[ Total\ Time = 172800 , \text{(seconds from days)} + 63115200 , \text{(seconds from years)} + 1800 , \text{(seconds from minutes)} + 30 , \text{(seconds)} \]
Calculating this:
\[ Total\ Time = 172800 + 63115200 + 1800 + 30 = 63388030 , \text{seconds} \]
To express that in terms of minutes, we simply have to divide by \( 60 \) (as there are 60 seconds in a minute):
\[ Total\ Minutes = \frac{63388030}{60} \approx 1056470.5 , \text{minutes} \]
Thus, the conversion of \( 2 \text{ days} + 2 \text{ years} + 30 \text{ minutes} + 30 \text{ seconds} \) into seconds/minutes gives us approximately \( 1056470.5 \) minutes.
