Conversion formula
How to convert 40 years to minutes?

We know (by definition) that: $1 yr \approx 525948.77 \min$

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of minutes.

\frac{1 yr}{40 yr} \approx \frac{525948.77 \min}{x \min}

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown $x$ :

x \min \approx \frac{40 yr}{1 yr} * 525948.77 \min \to x \min \approx 21037950.8 \min

Conclusion: $40 yr \approx 21037950.8 \min$

40 years is equivalent to 21037950.6497856 minutes

Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 minute is equal to 4.75331469612603e-08 times 40 years.

It can also be expressed as: 40 years is equal to $\frac{1}{4.75331469612603e-08}$ minutes.

Approximation

An approximate numerical result would be: forty years is about twenty-one million, thirty-seven thousand, nine hundred and fifty point six four minutes, or alternatively, a minute is about zero times forty years.

Units involved

This is how the units in this conversion are defined:

Years

"A year is the orbital in which Earth moves in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by changes in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the globe, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked."

Minutes

"The minute is a unit of time or of angle. As a unit of time, the minute is equal to 1⁄60 (the first sexagesimal fraction) of an hour, or 60 seconds. In the UTC time standard, a minute on rare occasions has 61 seconds, a consequence of leap seconds (there is a provision to insert a negative leap second, which would result in a 59-second minute, but this has never happened in more than 40 years under this system). As a unit of angle, the minute of arc is equal to 1⁄60 of a degree, or 60 seconds (of arc). Although not an SI unit for either time or angle, the minute is accepted for use with SI units for both. The SI symbols for minute or minutes are min for time measurement."
