Who's the mathematician here?

If a 24 hour day in heaven, is the same as a thousand years to us humans on earth, what part of a day, or how many minutes would a man who lives to be 80 years old represent?

I can't believe I used to love problems like this, but now I can't figure it.

Per your questions parameters ... a man living for 80 years on earth ... has lived for about 2 heavenly (that's time and not condition) hours.

Hmmm. 80 years divided by 1000 is 0.08

0.08 times 24 hours is 1.92 hours. Yep, about 2 hours is right.
