In order to develop a more appealing cheeseburger, a franchise used taste tests with 13 different buns, 5 different cheeses, 2 type of lettuce, and 3 types of tomatoes. If the taste taste were done at one restaurant by one tester who takes 10 minutes to eat each cheeseburger, approximately how long would it take the tester to eat all possible cheeseburgers?

3276* 10 = 32760 minutes Eating round the clock, it would take him is
(546)/(24) = 22 days 18 hours

Explanation:

Given that "In order to develop a more appealing cheeseburger, a franchise used taste tests with 13 different buns, 5 different cheeses, 2 type of lettuce, and 3 types of tomatoes"

From the given we can write

13 buns

8 cheese

4 lettuces

3 tomatoes

∴ There would be different cheeseburger combinations is given by


13* 8* 4* 3 = 3,276

Given that if the taste tester takes 10 minutes to eat a cheeseburger, then it would take him


3276* 10 = 32760 minutes

Eating round the clock, it would take him


(32760)/(60)=546 hours


(546)/(24) = 22 days 18 hours
