McDonald's has sold more than a billion hamburgers. If it were possible to eat a hamburger every minute of every day without stopping, how many years would it take to eat a billion hamburgers

1 day = 24 hours
24 hours =1440 minutes

1 year = 365 days
365 x 1,440 = 525, 600 minutes per year.

it means, 525600 hamburger per year

Generically, you're asking how many years make 1 billion minutes.

(1 x 10⁹ minutes) x (1hr/60min) x (1 da/24hr) x (1yr/365.25da) =

(1 x 10⁹) / (60 x 24 x 365.25) years = 1,901.3 years (rounded)
