Extension: Cedric has been in the hospital for 15 weeks, how many minutes is that? Use conversion factors with units to solve the problem and show your work

151200 minutes.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (in week) = 15 weeks

Time (in min) =?

Next, we shall convert 15 weeks to days. This can be obtained as follow:

1 week = 7 days

Therefore,

15 weeks = 15 weeks × 7 days / 1 week

15 weeks = 105 days

Next, we shall convert 105 days to hours. This can be obtained as follow:

1 day = 24 h

Therefore,

105 days = 105 days × 24 h / 1 day

105 days = 2520 h

Finally, we shall convert 2520 h to mins. This can be obtained as follow:

1 h = 60 mins

Therefore,

2520 h = 2520 h × 60 mins / 1 h

2520 h = 151200 mins

Thus, 15 weeks is equivalent to 151200 minutes.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
