Suppose the U.S. federal debt was $9,200,000,000,000. Let's say that the decision was made to reduce the debt by $10 million per day. How long would it take to pay off the debt at this rate? (Round your answer to the nearest year.)

it would take 2521 years because 9200000000000/10000000 is 920000 and there's 365 days in a year so 920000/365 is 2520.5 so u round up a year to get 2521 years.
