About converting Weeks to Hours
Weeks (wk) and Hours (h) are both units of time, so converting between them is a single multiplication: multiply your Weeks figure by 168. Ten Weeks comes to 1,680 Hours, and a hundred works out at 16,800 Hours.
Rule of thumb: going from Weeks to Hours multiplies, so the figure always grows — one Week is already 168 Hours. If your answer came out smaller, you have the conversion the wrong way round.
What is a Week?
The week is the odd one out among common time units: the day, the month and the year all have something astronomical behind them, but seven days answers to nothing in the sky. It is a cultural and religious convention that happened to spread worldwide, and it divides evenly into neither a month nor a year, which is why calendars never repeat neatly. Because businesses still need to agree on what "week 32" means, ISO 8601 defines a week-numbering system: weeks start on Monday, and week 1 is the one containing the first Thursday of the year.
What is a Hour?
An hour is sixty minutes, and the twenty-four-hour day it divides comes from ancient Egypt, though the sixty inside it is Babylonian. For most of history hours were not equal: daylight was split into twelve parts and the night into twelve more, so an hour was simply longer in summer than in winter. Only mechanical clocks made fixed hours practical, since a clock cannot easily be told to run slower in December. The hour is not an SI unit but is accepted for use with SI, and it remains the unit almost all paid work is priced in.
To put both in perspective: a week is the gap between one Monday and the next, while an hour is a standard slot in most people’s calendars.
