86400 seconds = 100000 simple seconds # divide by 86400 86400 seconds = 100000 simple seconds # divide by 86400
1 second = 1.157407 (periodical, rounded) 1 second = 1.157407 (periodical, rounded)
So having the seconds calculated, we can also compare the
minutes and hours:
1 simple minute = 100 simple seconds => 86.4 seconds = 1 minute 26.4 seconds
1 simple hour = 10000 simple seconds => 8640 seconds = 144 minutes = 2h 24 minutes
And the other way round:
1 minute = 60 seconds => 69.4 simple seconds (not one simple minute!)
1 hour = 3600 seconds => 4166.67 simple seconds = 41.6667 simple minutes = 0.4167 simple hours
