Weeks to Seconds conversion

How to convert weeks to seconds?

To convert weeks to seconds, you'll need to go through several steps, converting weeks to days, days to hours, hours to minutes, and finally minutes to seconds.

Here are the steps with the standard unit conversions:

1. 1 week = 7 days
2. 1 day = 24 hours
3. 1 hour = 60 minutes
4. 1 minute = 60 seconds

Let's break down the conversion:

1. Start with 1 week.
2. Convert 1 week to days: 1 week × 7 days/week = 7 days
3. Convert 7 days to hours: 7 days × 24 hours/day = 168 hours
4. Convert 168 hours to minutes: 168 hours × 60 minutes/hour = 10,080 minutes
5. Convert 10,080 minutes to seconds: 10,080 minutes × 60 seconds/minute = 604,800 seconds

So, 1 week is equal to 604,800 seconds.
