Gain... compared to what? Please clarify what you are comparing with what.
December has 31 days. Each day has 24 hours. Each hour has 60 minutes. Thus, the number of minutes in december is 31*24*60, or 44,640
Its not a constant value, from the winter solstice (shortest day, Dec 21) the increase is very slight rising to a maximum increase per day at the spring equinox ( Mar 20 ) As a rough guide, the total increase from mid december ( 7 hrs. 2 mins daylight) to mid March (11 hrs 48 mins daylight) is 296 mins. so that gives you 286 mins increase in 91 days = average increase of (286 / 91) 3.14 minutes per day
110 minutes = 1 hour and 50 minutes, since there are 60 minutes in an hour
Every Day the Earth gains more time. It is only about three minutes that are gained each day, after the winter solstice.
