Answer: 31.71 years
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find how many seconds are in a day.
There are 24 hours in a day, 60 minutes in an hour, and 60 seconds in a minute.
There are 3,600 seconds in an hour. How did we find this? 60 (min) x 60 (sec)
There are 86,400 seconds in a day. 24 (hr) x 3,600 (sec)
Now we need to find how many seconds are in a year.
There are 365 days in a year, we can multiply that by 86,400.
365 x 86,400 = 31,536,000
Whew! Now that we have that out the way, we can now divide $1 billion by 31,536,000 seconds.
1,000,000,000/31,536,000 = 31.71 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
If you had a billion dollars, it will take 31.71 years to spend one dollar every second.
