To determine the days he spent in 1 billion dollar.


\begin{gathered} 8\text{ dollar =1 sec.} \\ 1dollar=(1)/(8)sec \\ 1000,000,000dollar=(1)/(8)*1000,000,000sec \end{gathered}

There are 125,000,000 seconds required for spend 1 billion dollar.

Convert into days.

1 days =86400 seconds.


\begin{gathered} 86400sec=1\text{ days} \\ 1sec=(1)/(86400)days \\ 125,000,000=(125,000,000)/(86400)days=1446.76days \end{gathered}Answer
