Question

In order to develop a more appealing cheeseburger, a franchise uses taste tests with 8 different buns, 5 different cheeses,2 types of lettuce,and 3 types of tomatoes. If the taste test were done at one restaurant by one tester who takes 10 minutes to eat each burger ,approximately how long would it take the tester to eat all possible cheeseburgers ?

Answer 1

Answer: So it will take 90 hours (which is 3.75 days or 3 days, 18 hours) to eat all the possible cheeseburgers.

Explanation:

There are 9 x 6 x 2 x 5 = 540 different cheeseburgers

So...

(540 cheeseburgers)*(10 minutes/1 cheeseburger) = 540 x 10 = 5400 minutes

Convert to hours to get

(5400 min)*(1 hr/60 min) = 5400/60 = 90 hours
