The average life span of a tortoise is 200 years. How many days is this?
February 20th, 2023
##73000## without taking the 50 leap years into consideration.
##73 050##
The method and answer depend on the level of accuracy required.
We could just say that:
1 year has 365 days, therefore
in 200 years there are ##200 xx365 = 73,000## days,
However, this does not take into account that every 4th year is a leap year with 366 days.
So, over a period of 200 years there will be 50 leap years meaning there will be 50 days more.
However, this is an average, and 50 is a really small fraction of 73,000.
