Seconds or Hours, which is greater puzzle
‘S‘ refers to the number of seconds in a day and
‘H‘ refers to the number of hours in ten years.
Which quantity out of these two is greater?
number of Seconds in a day =86400
number of hours in 10 year=8*365*24+2*366*24=87648
So number of hours in 10 years is greater than number of Seconds in a day.
no. of seconds in a day =[ 60 * 60 ] *24 = 3600 * 24
no. of hours in 10 years = (365*8 + 366*2) * 24
second is visibly larger .
There are 86400 seconds in a day.
There are 365*24=8760 hours in a year.
So number of hours in 10 years is greater than number of Seconds in a day. (Even without taking in calculation that there 2 more days because of leap years)
