  Sure! To calculate the duration of an Ethereum epoch, you need to know the block time and the number of blocks in an epoch. The block time for Ethereum is around 15 seconds, and the number of blocks in an epoch is 6,400. So, to calculate the duration, you multiply the block time by the number of blocks in an epoch. In this case, it would be 15 seconds * 6,400 blocks = 96,000 seconds or approximately 1 day and 2 hours.

  To calculate the duration of an Ethereum epoch, you can use the formula: duration = block time * number of blocks in an epoch. The block time for Ethereum is around 15 seconds, and the number of blocks in an epoch is 6,400. So, the duration would be 15 seconds * 6,400 blocks = 96,000 seconds or approximately 1 day and 2 hours. You can easily calculate the duration using this formula.
