Question

"The Cheese Curd Bacon Burger combo at Buffalo Wild Wings is 1950calories, the equivalent of five Bacon Double Cheeseburgers from Burger King and approximately the amount of calories most adults consume in a day. How

many stairs would you need to walk up to burn off those calories? How many Empire State Buildings is that? (The Empire State Building has 1576 stairs from the ground floor to the top floor.)"

Answer 1

To burn off the calories in the Cheese Curd Bacon Burger combo, you would need to climb approximately 11,470 stairs. This is equivalent to about 7.28 Empire State Buildings.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of stairs needed to burn off the calories in a Cheese Curd Bacon Burger combo at Buffalo Wild Wings, we need to know the number of calories burned per stair climbed.

However, we can estimate the number of calories burned by climbing one stair. On average, a person burns about 0.17 calories per stair climbed.

So, to find the number of stairs needed to burn off the calories in the burger combo, we divide 1950 calories by 0.17 calories per stair.

This gives us approximately 11,470 stairs.

Now, to determine how many Empire State Buildings this is equivalent to, we divide the total number of stairs (11,470) by the number of stairs in the Empire State Building (1576 stairs).

This gives us approximately 7.28 Empire State Buildings.
