The first caveman who wanted to trade some buffalo meat in return for a couple of days with his neighbor's wife needed math to calculate the optimum meat conversion factor.
Using the following information we can solve this:There are 24 hours per dayThere are 365 days per yearThere are 8760 hours/yearNow we can do the math:27 years x 8760 hours/year = 236520 Hours34 days x 24 hours/day = 816 HoursHowever, we need to factor in that in 27 years there is an extra 6.75 days worth of leap years.6.75 leap days x 24 hours/day = 162 HoursSince 236520 + 812 + 162 Hours = 237494 Hours/27 years & 34 days.
5 days 4 hours - 2 days 11 hours = 2 days 17 hours
17 days and 17 hours minus 8 days and 7 hours equals 9 days and 10 hours.
