Convert year to fortnight

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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

(s e c o n d)

Left side: 1.0 (y e a r) = 31558118.4 (s e c o n d) = 31558118.4 (s)

Right 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)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 31558118.4 \times (s e c o n d) = x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \times (s e c o n d)

Or

1.0 \cdot 31558118.4 \cdot (s) = x \cdot 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \cdot (s)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 31558118.4 \cdot (s) = x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \times (s)

Conversion Equation

31558118.4 = x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6}

Switch sides

x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} = 31558118.4

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}})

x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \times \frac{1.0}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}} = 31558118.4 \times \frac{1.0}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}}

Cancel

x \times 1.2096 \times 10^{6} \times \frac{1.0}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}} = 31558118.4 \times \frac{1.0}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}}

Simplify

x = \frac{31558118.4}{1.2096 \times 10^{6}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{6}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 6}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 6} \times 31558118.4}{1.2096}

Solve

x

x \approx 26.089714286 \approx 26.0897

Conversion Equation

1.0 (y e a r) \approx 26.0897 (f o r t n i g h t)
