Conversion formula

The conversion factor from hours to seconds is 3600, which means that 1 hour is equal to 3600 seconds:

1 hr = 3600 s

To convert 120 hours into seconds we have to multiply 120 by the conversion factor in order to get the time amount from hours to seconds. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 hr → 3600 s

120 hr → T_(s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the time T in seconds:

T_(s) = 120 hr × 3600 s

T_(s) = 432000 s

The final result is:

120 hr → 432000 s

We conclude that 120 hours is equivalent to 432000 seconds:

120 hours = 432000 seconds
