To find out how many hours are in a year, you can use the following calculation:
Calculation of Hours in a Year
- 1 day = 24 hours
- 1 year = 365 days (not accounting for leap years)
So: Hours in a year = 365 days × 24 hours/day = 8,760 hours
Considering Leap Years
If you want to be more precise and include leap years:
- 1 leap year = 366 days
- Average year length (accounting for leap years) ≈ 365.25 days
Then: Hours in a year ≈ 365.25 days × 24 hours/day ≈ 8,766 hours
Summary:
- Regular year: 8,760 hours
- Average year (including leap years): 8,766 hours
