An hour is 1/8,760 (about 0.000114) of a year in a standard 365-day year. Here is the detailed explanation:
- A standard year has 365 days.
- Each day has 24 hours.
- Therefore, the total hours in a standard year = 365 days × 24 hours/day = 8,760 hours.
- Thus, one hour is 18760\frac{1}{8760}87601 of a year, approximately 0.000114 years.
If considering a leap year (366 days), the total hours are 8,784; and for an average or mean year (about 365.25 days), the total hours are roughly 8,766. So, 1 hour corresponds approximately to:
- Standard year: 18,760\frac{1}{8,760}8,7601 years
- Leap year: 18,784\frac{1}{8,784}8,7841 years
- Mean year: 18,766\frac{1}{8,766}8,7661 years.
