About Converting Yottaseconds to Petaseconds
Yottasecond and Petasecond are both everyday units of duration, and converting between them is one of the most routine calculations there is — scheduling, project planning, and billing all depend on it. Specifically: Yottasecond is 1e+24 second units, and petasecond is 1000000000000000 second units.
Formula
petaseconds = yottaseconds × 1000000000
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 yottasecond equals 1e+24 base units, and 1 petasecond equals 1e+15 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct yottasecond-to-petasecond factor of 1000000000.
Simple example
1 Ys × 1000000000 = 1,000,000,000 Ps
1 yottasecond = 1,000,000,000 petaseconds.
Real-world example
24 Ys × 1000000000 = 24,000,000,000 Ps
24 yottaseconds = 24,000,000,000 petaseconds.

Reverse conversion: Petasecond to Yottasecond
1 Ps × 1e-9 = 1e-9 Ys
1 petasecond = 1e-9 yottaseconds.
yottaseconds = petaseconds × 1e-9
