I heard a teacher on the radio say that it would take over 30000 years for a trillion seconds to pass - I want make sure this right but not sure I am using the correct calculations.

dang, this evil orginization sure likes to challenge math masters, im starting to suspect here that whoever started this Anti-Forum Orginization is actually one of the mods trying to take over the forums...

it could be melody!

it could be CPhill or CPhill II!

It could be alan!

maybe radix!

or maybe it can be some of the social people

it could be Rosala

it could be brittany

it could be my main ego, TR

or, it maybe could even be you anonymous!

it maybe could be even zegroes whos been staying silent

anyways, lets get this problem over with

according to a math master here,

1 year=31,536,000 seconds

1 trillion seconds=1,000,000,000,000

so, 1 trillion seconds=31709.7919837645865043 years, scratch that off, the approximate amount is 31, 710 years

$${\frac{{\mathtt{1\,000\,000\,000\,000}}}{{\mathtt{31\,536\,000}}}} = {\mathtt{31\,709.791\: \!983\: \!764\: \!586\: \!504\: \!3}}$$

so, overall, the teacher on the radio is definetely correct, it will take about 31, 710 years to reach 1,000,000,000,000 seconds
