Convert week to jiffy

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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

(s e c o n d)

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

Right side: 1.0 (j i f f y) = 10^{- 2} (s e c o n d) = 10^{- 2} (s)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times (s e c o n d) = x \times 10^{- 2} \times (s e c o n d)

Or

1.0 \cdot 6.048 \times 10^{5} \cdot (s) = x \cdot 10^{- 2} \cdot (s)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 6.048 \times 10^{5} \cdot (s) = x \times 10^{- 2} \times (s)

Conversion Equation

6.048 \times 10^{5} = x \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{- 2} = 6.048 \times 10^{5}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}})

x \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} = 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} = 6.048 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{6.048 \times 10^{5}}{10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = 10^{2} \times 6.048 \times 10^{5}

Simplify

x = 10^{7} \times 6.048

Solve

x

x = 60480000 = 6.048 \times 10^{7}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (w e e k) = 6.048 \times 10^{7} (j i f f y)
