How can Modulo be used to convert seconds into hours, minutes, and seconds in PHP?

To convert seconds into hours, minutes, and seconds in PHP, we can use the modulo operator (%) to extract the remaining seconds after calculating hours and minutes. By dividing the total number of seconds by 3600, we can get the number of hours. Then, by taking the remainder of the total seconds divided by 3600 and dividing it by 60, we can get the number of minutes. Finally, the remaining seconds can be obtained by taking the modulo of the total seconds divided by 60. 

$totalSeconds = 3665;

$hours = floor($totalSeconds / 3600);
$minutes = floor(($totalSeconds % 3600) / 60);
$seconds = $totalSeconds % 60;

echo "Hours: $hours, Minutes: $minutes, Seconds: $seconds";
