Answer :

Sure! Let's break down each part of this question to find the solutions step-by-step.

1. How many hours are there in 5 days?

- There are 24 hours in a day.
- To find the total hours in 5 days, multiply the number of hours per day by the number of days:
[tex]\(5 \times 24 = 120\)[/tex] hours.

2. How many hours are there in 1 week?

- A week has 7 days.
- So, multiply the number of days by the hours in a day:
[tex]\(7 \times 24 = 168\)[/tex] hours.

3. Hours between midday and midnight?

- Midday is 12 PM and midnight is 12 AM.
- The time from midday to midnight is exactly 12 hours.

4. How many minutes are there in 3 hours and 12 minutes?

- First, convert the hours to minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour:
[tex]\(3 \times 60 = 180\)[/tex] minutes.
- Add the additional 12 minutes:
[tex]\(180 + 12 = 192\)[/tex] minutes.

5. Minutes in a day between 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock?

- Between 3 PM and 6 PM is 3 hours.
- Convert the hours to minutes:
[tex]\(3 \times 60 = 180\)[/tex] minutes.

6. How many seconds are there in 5 minutes?

- There are 60 seconds in a minute.
- So, multiply the number of minutes by the seconds in a minute:
[tex]\(5 \times 60 = 300\)[/tex] seconds.

7. How many seconds are there in 1.5 hours?

- Convert hours to seconds. Since there are 3600 seconds in an hour:
[tex]\(1.5 \times 3600 = 5400\)[/tex] seconds.

These are your solutions:

- 120 hours in 5 days
- 168 hours in 1 week
- 12 hours between midday and midnight
- 192 minutes in 3 hours and 12 minutes
- 180 minutes between 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock
- 300 seconds in 5 minutes
- 5400 seconds in 1.5 hours
