Convert jiffy to week

Learn how to convert 1 jiffy to week step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (j i f f y) = x (w e e k)

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

(s e c o n d)

Left side: 1.0 (j i f f y) = \frac{1.0}{60.0} (s e c o n d) = \frac{1.0}{60.0} (s)

Right side: 1.0 (w e e k) = 6.048 \times 10^{5} (s e c o n d) = 6.048 \times 10^{5} (s)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (j i f f y) = x (w e e k)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{60.0} \times (s e c o n d) = x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times (s e c o n d)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1.0}{60.0} \cdot (s) = x \cdot 6.048 \times 10^{5} \cdot (s)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{60.0} \cdot (s) = x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times (s)

Conversion Equation

\frac{1.0}{60.0} = x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5}

Switch sides

x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} = \frac{1.0}{60.0}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.048 \times 10^{5}})

x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1.0}{6.048 \times 10^{5}} = \frac{1.0}{60.0} \times \frac{1.0}{6.048 \times 10^{5}}

Cancel

x \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1.0}{6.048 \times 10^{5}} = \frac{1.0 \times 1.0}{60.0 \times 6.048 \times 10^{5}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{60.0 \times 6.048 \times 10^{5}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{5}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 5}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 5}}{60.0 \times 6.048}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000276 \approx 2.7557 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (j i f f y) \approx 2.7557 \times 10^{- 8} (w e e k)
