First we will divide to see how many years will come in the amount of days,

1,000,000 ÷ 365 ≈ 2,740

SO, in 1,000,000 days there are ABOUT 2,740 years.

Next we will multiply to see how many days there are in 78 years.

365 × 78 = 28,470

SO, there are 28,470 days in 78 years.

No, the average person lives more than 1,000,000 days.

Hope I helped ya!!

Answer=No

1yr=365days

To solve this problem, we have to find out how many days are in 78 years


(365days)/(1year) = (xdays)/(78 years)

cross multiply

1x=28470
divide both sides by 1
x=28470days

the average person lives for 28,470 days

The question asks is the average person lives for at least 1,000,000

28,470<1,000,000

SO, no, the average person does not live for at least 1,000,000days
