Maybe I'm doing this differently but I would go this way.

crt - Construct Ratio Time
nt - Normal Time
1 day nt = 1000 Years crt
so 1 Hr nt = 41.66r Years crt (1000/24)
so 1 Min nt = 0.69 Years crt (1000/1440)
so for if for every 1 Min nt 0.69 Years occur crt then:

mr - Minutes required , md - Minutes in a day , yd - crt years in a day , rtm - crt for mr .

rtm = (yd/md)*mr

mr = 25 , md = 1440 , yd = 1000.
so rtm = (1000/1440)*25
rtm = 17.36 Years crt

Edit: similar to the dude above me lol noticed after posting I hadn't read all the posts.

Your approach is 'nice'. A problem statement can be solved in various approaches, particularly if it's related to 'Mathematics'. You & I ventured via 'different' routes, which eventually led to the 'same' destination (something similar to "solving the same problem of 'binary subtraction', using 'one's complement method' OR 'two's complement method' - the result being the same!).

And for your information, 'Sir', this particular "dude's" name is 'Kaustuv'.

Keep Smiling & Shining!

Now I understand why so many students can't work out trivial arguments...

Anyhow, yes the correct answer is 625/36 which is approximately 17.36

As for the reasoning behind the original post, I think it's absolutely skewed and unscientific.

.06944444 years is the equivalent of 1 minute

so...1.73611 years?

and no i only read the first couple of posts

3/4/15


This is the correct answer. I did the math already and answered above.

OMG


how long is 25 minutes in the "one day cnstruct"

not the 1000 year construct!!!!!

25 minutes

You just keep working on those abs, pretty boy.

nts remember to read it twice then reread it again

No worries. Gives you a hug, from, uhmmm, behind.

It's not the math that I'd be concerned about.

It's what this alternate timeline construct is all about.

With all the talk in the world about alternate universes, and about how time is relative, I wonder which of the ideas you are pondering.

Everyone else has done the calculations under the assumption that if a day in one place is "this" in the other place, then blah blah.

But what if time passes at a different rate in the other construct?

All things remaining the same, that is the answer. No overthinking. I can't go through the calculations again. Gah

ohhh all are very poor in math....

I think I have to calculate ,,,,haha

105.61 Years~~Respectively.

666days

Same for me 17.36 using mean solar year 365.2421986.

I got this too .694 years in one minute. I didn't see how many pages this thread had. Now I need to read everything after this page 1...oops.

This seems bible related and probably impossible to answer being that if it took 1000 years for a planet to rotate on its' axis, then the length of the hour & minute would also be different than what we use on earth for these calculations.

I'm probably not making sense...best guess. Can't wait to read the rest of the thread.

Edit: forgot to put "in one minute".

OMG...didn't realize how old it was either.

After reading the whole thread. Going with this answer.
