Let's think about billions by looking at Bill Gates, president of Microsoft. One year, his personal wealth grew by $20 billion.
marta [7]

Answer:

No, he should <u>not</u> pick up the $100 bill

Explanation:

If his salary were those $20 billion (20,000,000,000) by a year. Let's find out how much this is by a second.

First let's find out how much is that salary by <em>a day</em>, then by <em>an hour</em>, then by <em>a minute</em> and finally by <em>a second</em>.

\frac{20,000,000,000}{year}*(\frac{1 year}{365d})*(\frac{1d}{24h})*(\frac{1}{60min} )*(\frac{1min}{60s} )  \\\\  =\frac{20,000,000,000}{365*24*60*60} \\ \\ =\frac{20,000,000,000}{31,536,000} \\ \\ =634.19

So he would be losing money if he picks up the $100 bill, because he would be missing 634 dollars per second.
