Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 3e-8: 120 × 3e-8 ≈ 0.0000036 yr, against the exact 0.0000038 yr (5.3% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A second is smaller than a year, so the number of years must come out smaller than the number of seconds. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
