Question

How many years does it take to earn a million dollars if you are paid $30 an hour and work 35 hours a week for 50 weeks a year

Answer 1

$30x35=$1050/week

$1050x50=$52,500/year

$1,000,000/$52,500=19.0476 years

It will take 19 years to earn a million dollars.

Answer 2

$1,000,000* (1 hr/ $30)* (1 week/ 35 hours)* (1 year/ 50 weeks)= 19 years.
(Note that the units cancel out and you get the answer)
