We have 4 people in our home
so total bought 360 pounds of hamburger
each ate 2/3 pound every day
so 360-(amount eaten per day) times (number of days)=0 (0 because we want it to be gone)
number of days=x unknown
amount eaten per day=(number of people) times (amount eaten per person per day)
amount eaten per day=4 times 2/3 lb=8/3
360-8/3 times x=0
360-8/3x=0
add 8/3x to both sides
360=8/3x
multiply both sides by 3/8
1080/8=x
135=x
it would take 135 days or about 4 months or 1/3 year, assuming that my family doesn't get tired of it and that my reletives don't visit and take a whole bunch to bring home.

4 people takes 135 days

Assume that a spherical cell, with a diameter of 18 μm, has spherical mitochondria, each with a diameter of 0.18 μm. If mitochon
laiz [17]

Since the linear dimension of the mitochondria is 10^-2 times that of the cell, the volume as a proportion of cell volume will be (10^-2)^3 = 10^-6. In order to make up 0.134 of the cell volume, there must be

(1.34×10^-1)/(10^-6) = 1.34×10^5

mitochondria in the cell.

There are about 134,000 mitochondria.
