How many seconds in a day? Milliseconds in a minute? Tooly helps you easily convert between various units of time, from the blink of an eye to geological ages.

Discover the intricate relationships between different units of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, years) and how to seamlessly convert between them using Tooly's Unit Converter.

Time. We measure it constantly, yet converting between its different units—seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, years—can sometimes make our heads spin! How many minutes are in a week? How many seconds have passed since yesterday? Tooly is here to make mastering time conversions a breeze!

Tick-tock! Don't waste *time* doing complex calculations. Let's break down these conversions together.

Understanding the Building Blocks of Time:

Most time conversions rely on a few key relationships:

  • 1 Minute = 60 Seconds
  • 1 Hour = 60 Minutes
  • 1 Day = 24 Hours
  • 1 Week = 7 Days
  • 1 Year = 365 Days (approximately, with leap years falling every 4 years adding an additional day)

From these, we can figure out others:

  • Seconds in an Hour: 60 seconds/minute * 60 minutes/hour = 3,600 seconds/hour
  • Seconds in a Day: 3,600 seconds/hour * 24 hours/day = 86,400 seconds/day
  • Minutes in a Week: 60 minutes/hour * 24 hours/day * 7 days/week = 10,080 minutes/week

We can also go smaller:

  • 1 Second = 1,000 Milliseconds (ms)

Why Convert Time Units?

Converting time units can be essential for various reasons:

  • Project planning: Convert task estimates in hours to days to visualize timelines.
  • Scientific calculations: Use seconds as a standard unit in experiments and formulas.
  • Understanding durations: Convert video lengths from minutes to hours for better management.
  • Scheduling and time management: Seamlessly plan your day with accurate time increments.
  • Curiosity: Ever wondered how many heartbeats happen in a year?
