Convert fortnight to year

Learn how to convert 1 fortnight to year step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (f o r t n i g h t) = x (y e a r)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(s e c o n d)

Left side: 1.0 (f o r t n i g h t) = 1.2096 \times 10^{6} (s e c o n d) = 1.2096 \times 10^{6} (s)

Right side: 1.0 (y e a r) = 3.1536 \times 10^{7} (s e c o n d) = 3.1536 \times 10^{7} (s)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (f o r t n i g h t) = x (y e a r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \times (s e c o n d) = x \times 3.1536 \times 10^{7} \times (s e c o n d)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \cdot (s) = x \cdot 3.1536 \times 10^{7} \cdot (s)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \cdot (s) = x \times 3.1536 \times 10^{7} \times (s)

Conversion Equation

1.2096 \times 10^{6} = x \times 3.1536 \times 10^{7}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

1.2096 \times 10^{6} = x \times 3.1536 \times {10^{7}}^{10}

Simplify

1.2096 = x \times 3.1536 \times 10.0

Switch sides

x \times 3.1536 \times 10.0 = 1.2096

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.1536 \times 10.0})

x \times 3.1536 \times 10.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.1536 \times 10.0} = 1.2096 \times \frac{1.0}{3.1536 \times 10.0}

Cancel

x \times 3.1536 \times 10.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.1536 \times 10.0} = 1.2096 \times \frac{1.0}{3.1536 \times 10.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.2096}{3.1536 \times 10.0}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0383561644 \approx 3.8356 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (f o r t n i g h t) \approx 3.8356 \times 10^{- 2} (y e a r)
