Need help in converting years to days,hours,minutes, and seconds

JavaScript
1

I just dont get what to do, I have thought of the process of putting the formulas together. I had thought of creating variables for each unit. But, one question dawns to me is that I dont know what to put as the variable for days if the variable of years would be 365, hours 24, seconds 60. Im at a loss, I am still new to JavaScript and have been searching for 3 hours. I dont know how to put the pieces together in putting it into an equation to post on an HTML. PLEASE HELP! (:

Let’s start with an assumption, that you are just converting years in to some other unit.


function convertYears(years, unit) {
    
}

We can make sure that years is a numeric value, and that unit is one of months, days, hours, minutes, or seconds.


function convertYears(years, unit) {
    years = Number(years) || 0;
    var time;

    switch (unit) {
    case 'months':
        // time = ...
        break;
    case 'days':
        // time = ...
        break;
    case 'hours':
        // time = ...
        break;
    case 'minutes':
        // time = ...
        break;
    case 'seconds':
        // time = ...
        break;
    default:
        return;
    }
    return time;
}
