To calculate 1 day, 17 hours, and 43 minutes in the future, you must convert each unit of time to the same format. Start by converting 1 day to hours. Since a day consists of 24 hours, 1 day is equal to 24 hours. Next, add the 17 hours to get a total of 41 hours. Then, convert the 43 minutes to hours by dividing by 60, which equals 0.72 hours.

Finally, add the total hours together: 41 hours + 0.72 hours = 41.72 hours. This is the equivalent time period that represents 1 day, 17 hours, and 43 minutes in the future. By converting each unit of time to a standard format (hours in this case), you can easily perform computations and determine the total duration accurately.
