Question

You have been working at a fast food restaurant for the past 35 years wrapping hamburgers. Each hour you wrap 184 hamburgers. You work 8 hours per day. You work 5 days a week. You get paid every 2 weeks with a salary of $840.34. How many hamburgers will you have to wrap to make your first one million dollars?

Answer 1

Answer:

You will need to wrap 4,121,600‬ hamburgers to make your first million

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 52 weeks per year, therefore, per year you've received $840.34 26 times.

$840.34*26 = $21,848.84‬00 per year.

For the 35 years you've been working you've won:

$21,848.84*35 = $764,709.4.

So to get your first million you need to earn:

$1,000,000-$764,709.4 =$235,290.6‬

If you divide what you need to earn by what you earn every two weeks you'll get:

235,290.6‬/840.34 = 279.99 or 280 salaries to get your one million.

You work 10 days per 2 weeks and:

10*8 = 80 hours per 2 weeks.

And:

80*184 = 14,720 hamburgers wrapped per 2 weeks.

And if we multiply the hamburgers wrapped by the salaries you need to earn to get your million you'll get your answer:

14,720*280 = 4,121,600‬ hamburgers that you will need to wrap to make your first million.
