Answer 1

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds.

Saturn: 10 hours 39 minutes and 24 seconds.

Convert hours to minutes: 10 hours x 60 minutes per hour = 600 minutes.

Convert seconds to minutes: 24 seconds / 60 seconds per minute = 0.4 minutes.

Total time for Saturn : 600 minutes + 39 minutes + 0.4 minutes = 639.4 minutes
