→ 3 × 60 = 180 seconds

3. ______ hours in 10 days
→ 10 × 24 = 240 hours

4. ______ seconds in 4 minutes
→ 4 × 60 = 240 seconds

5. ______ seconds in 7 minutes
→ 7 × 60 = 420 seconds

6. ______ hours in 5 days
→ 5 × 24 = 120 hours

7. ______ minutes in 1 hour

→ 360 ÷ 60 = 6 minutes

4. ______ minutes in 180 seconds
→ 180 ÷ 60 = 3 minutes

5. ______ hours in 120 minutes
→ 120 ÷ 60 = 2 hours

6. ______ minutes in 300 seconds
→ 300 ÷ 60 = 5 minutes

7. ______ days in 168 hours
→ 168 ÷ 24 = 7 days

8. ______ day in 24 hours
→ 24 ÷ 24 = 1 day

9. ______ minutes in 600 seconds
→ 600 ÷ 60 = 10 minutes

10. ______ hours in 480 minutes
→ 480 ÷ 60 = 8 hours

📝 Tips for Solving:

- To convert to a smaller unit, multiply (e.g., hours → minutes).
- To convert to a larger unit, divide (e.g., seconds → minutes).

Use these conversion factors:
- 60 seconds = 1 minute
- 60 minutes = 1 hour
- 24 hours = 1 day

This helps you move up or down the time scale easily.
