# 16 - Do the math 60 min x 24 hours x 365 days = 525,600 minutes in a year

There aren't exactly 24 hours in a day, but to have an even number, they put it at 24 (a "calendar day"). A year is actually 365.24 days (which is why we have a leap year every four years). So techinically, 525,600 isn't correct.

You've ruined this silly show for me. I must run and cry now.
No, seriously I'm glad someone finally pointed that out.

Go away, you're too annoying. To even post that crap is ridiculous.

Yes, how dare I clear up confusion as to what #16 was referring to. I never expressed any anger that the technically correct mathematical equation wasn't used; I simply explained how the person who posted #16 arrived at his answer. I fail to see how expanding one's knowledge on a subject is "crap," but if you would rather remain ignorant, be my guest.
