1) 180 days. 24 hours in a day. 60 minutes in an hour. 24X60=1440. Then, take that by the days: 180. 180X1440=259,200 minutes in 180 days.

One English ton is 2,240 pounds. There are approximately 453.6 grams in one pound. 1.8X10^-4= .00018(2240)=.4032 TONS. To convert to pounds: .4032(2240)=903.168. To convert that to grams, multiply by the number of grams in a pound. 453.6(903.168)=409,677 grams. I apologize if I misunderstood your question (your 1.80X10-4 Tons was confusing)

3)First of all, figure out how many years 62 months is. The closest divisible is 60, which would be 5 years. So, first let's take care of the 5 years. Multiply it by the number of minutes in a year to start. 525,600(5)=2,628,000 minutes. Then multiply by 60 to get seconds: 2,628,000(60)= 157,680,000. Now, DON'T FORGET the other two months! Assuming that they are normal months (not February), they would equal 61 days (one 31 days, the other 30). The seconds in a day are 24x60x60=8,400. Multiply that by your number of days. 8,400(61)=5,270,400. DON'T FORGET TO ADD THEM TOGETHER!!! Add your two months and your 5 years: 157,680,000+5,270,400= 162,950,400 seconds!
