Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 4000: 18 × 4000 ≈ 72,000 s, against the exact 64,800 s (11.1% 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 hour is bigger than a second, so the number of seconds must come out larger than the number of hours. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
