Staff Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If all these hot dogs were laid end to end they
would circle the earth 21.5 times. If the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,860 miles, and one mile is
5,280 feet, find the length (in inches) of each hot dog. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hot dogs eaten = 7 000 000 000

Circumference of the earth = 24 860 miles

21.5 times the circumference of the Earth = 21.5 x 24 860 miles

                                                = 534490 miles

But,

1 mile = 5280 feet

So that,

534490 miles = X

X = 5280 x 534490

   = 287707200 feet

Also,

1 feet = 12 inches

Then,

287707200 feet = Y

Y = 12 x 287707200

   = 3452486400 inches

Thus,

the length of each hot dog =

                     = 0.4932

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

a cube has 6 sides

the probability of getting 5 on the first cube is 1/6 since only one side of the cube has 5 on it.

there are 3 sides of the cube with even number on it [2,4,6]

therefore the probability of getting even number is 3/6

for both events to happen together, the probability would be

1/6 x 3/6 = 12/36

which simplifies to 1/12
