Maths

Today you will learn to convert units of time.

Read these:

60 seconds = 1 minute    this means 1 minute is the same as 60 seconds

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

7 days = 1 week

2 weeks = a fortnight

About 4 weeks = a month

12 months = 1 year

365 days = 1 year

10 years = a decade

100 years = a century

1000 years = a millennium

Use this information to complete the challenge attached that best suits your level. You may have to multiply to help you. For example,

If 1 hour is 60 minutes, then 4 hours is 4x60 which is 240 minutes.
