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 20 hours into seconds we have to multiply 20 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
20 hr → T(s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the time T in seconds:
T(s) = 20 hr × 3600 s
T(s) = 72000 s
The final result is:
20 hr → 72000 s
We conclude that 20 hours is equivalent to 72000 seconds:
20 hours = 72000 seconds
