How to convert 12 minutes 1 second to seconds?
In order to convert 12 minutes and 1 second to seconds we need to take the minutes part and transform it into seconds. We know that 1 minute equals 60 seconds. Therefore to get the number of minutes in seconds we need to multiply the amount of minutes by 60. In this case we have to multiply 12 minutes by 60:
12m × 60s = 720 seconds
Now we have to add both amount of seconds to get the final result:
720s + 1s = 721 seconds
Finally we can say that 12 min 1 sec is equivalent to 721 seconds:
12 minutes and 1 second = 721 seconds

Units definitions
The units involved in this conversion are minutes, seconds and seconds. This is how they are defined:
Minutes
The second (symbol: s, also abbreviated: sec) is the unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), historically defined as 1⁄86400 of a day – this factor derived from the division of the day first into 24 hours, then to 60 minutes and finally to 60 seconds each (24 × 60 × 60 = 86400).
Seconds
The minute is a unit of time usually equal to 1⁄60 (the first sexagesimal fraction) of an hour, or 60 seconds. In the UTC time standard, a minute on rare occasions has 61 seconds, a consequence of leap seconds (there is a provision to insert a negative leap second, which would result in a 59-second minute, but this has never happened in more than 40 years under this system). Although not an SI unit, the minute is accepted for use with SI units. The SI symbol for minute or minutes is min (without a dot).
