First, find the total number of seconds in 24 hours. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so there are 60 * 60 = 3,600 seconds in an hour. Multiply this by 24 to get the total seconds in 24 hours:
Total seconds in 24 hours = 3,600 seconds/hour * 24 hours = 86,400 seconds
Now, calculate what percentage one second represents out of 86,400 seconds:
Percentage = (1 second / 86,400 seconds) * 100%
Percentage = 0.0011574074074074074%
So, one second is approximately 0.00116% of 24 hours.
