How many hours are in a year

365 x 24 = X

365 days are present each year -- excluding leap years!

There are 24 hours in one day.

Simply multiply 24 by 365, and you have your answer.

365 x 24 = 8760.

*This is of course rounded and the definite answer would be a decimal.*

How accurate do you need it to be? The simple answer is
1 calendar year (non-leap) = 365 d = 8760 h

Then there's also:
1 calendar year (leap) = 366 d = 8784 h = length of the current year (2012)
1 calendar year (averaged over the 4-yr Julian cycle) = 365¼ d = 8766 h
1 calendar year (averaged over the 400-yr Gregorian cycle) = 365.2425 d = 8765.82 h
1 tropical year (= yr of the seasons) = 365.24219 d = 8765.81256 h
1 sidereal year (= Earth's true orbital period) = 365.256363 d = 8766.152712 h

one year
365 days
52 weeks
8765.81277 hours
525,948 minutes

8765.81 hours = 1 earth year

Multiply 365 times 24
