var secondsPerMin = 60;
var minsPerHour = 60;
var hoursPerDay = 24;
var daysPerWeek = 7;
var weeksPerYear = 52;
var daysPerYear = 365;
var yearsAlive = 31;
var secondsPerDay = secondsPerMin * minsPerHour * hoursPerDay;
document.write('There are ' + secondsPerDay + ' seconds in a day');
var secondsAlive = secondsPerDay * daysPerYear * yearsAlive;
document.write('I have been on this earth for more than ' + secondsAlive ' and counting!');
I don't understand how the first document.write example renders correctly but not the second one I wrote. Any help? Thanks!
