days, 2006–2015

Info Edit

    Time is measured in hours, and 1 day is 24 hours (for example, 22 days are recorded as 22 Ã— 24 = 528 hours). If customs clearance takes 7.5 hours, the data are recorded as is. Alternatively, suppose that documents are submitted to a customs agency at 8:00 a.m., are processed overnight and can be picked up at 8:00 a.m. the next day. In this case the time for customs clearance would be recorded as 24 hours because the actual procedure took 24 hours.
