You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I like to break things down so I am paid 840.34 every two weeks, so I divide that by two to get may pay per week. $840.34 / 2 weeks = $420.17 / week.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next take $1,000,000 / $420.17 / week = 2,379.99 weeks to make a million dollars.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now I take 184 Hamburgs / hour x 8 hours per day x 5 days per week = 7,360 hamburgs wrapped / week\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 2,379.99 weeks x 7,360 wrapped hamburgers / week = 17,516,719.42\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You need to wrap 17,516,720 hamburgs, since there is no .42 hamburgs.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the 35 years here is not relevant, since you need to work 2,379.99 weeks to make a million dollars, that is 2,379.99 weeks / 52 weeks / year = 45.77 years at 35 years you have not worked long enough.
