Question

Because you never learned dimensional analysis, you have been working at a fast food restaurant for the past 10 years making milkshakes. Each hour you create 31 milkshakes. You work 8 hours per day. You work 6 days a week. You get paid every 2 weeks with a salary of $721.99. How many milkshakes will you have to create to make your first one billion dollars?

Answer 1

Answer:
4122340426 milkshakes.
Explanation:
Ok so knowing that you make 721.99,$ every two weeks, lets see how much money you make a week so you divide 721.99 by 2, which gives 361.00$. Now lets find how much money you make per day, so you divide 361 by 6 because you work 6 days a week, which gives 60.17$. Now, we'll find how much money you make an hour, by dividing 60.17 by 8 because you work 8 hours a day, which gives 7.52$. Now if you make 7.52$ an hour, we have to know how many hours it would take to get a billion dollars, so divide a billion by 7.52, which gives 132978723.404 hours. Now we know that each hour you make 31 milkshakes, and you need to work 132978723.404 hours to make a billion, so multiply 132978723.404 by 31, which gives 4122340425.53, which is approx 4122340426 milkshakes. A lot!!! Hope that helps
