    Abbie and Carter--
    1,500,000 x 365 = 547,500,000
    6.02x10e23/547,500,000 = 1.1x10e15 Years to sell 1 mole of dominos pizza.

      Need a lot more explanation to this discussion. Missing background, units, sources, and more could be brought to this post.

    it will take Dunkin Doughnuts 3 years to sell 3.23x10^10 a mole of coffee

    60cups x 3.1x10^8 = 1.86 x 10^10 so
    6.02 x 1023 divided by 1.8 x 10^10

      Need some clarifying what you are showing here. Making some mistakes with the math. Need some background and connection to what this number means.

    The height of a Coke soda can is 4.83 inches
    Converted into millimeters = 122.682 mm

    122.682mm x 6.02e23 = 7.3854564e25 mm
    Converted into miles = 45891098484848484352. miles

    The Distance from Earth to the Sun in miles: 93,000,000 miles

    How many times would a mole of a Coke soda can go to the Sun?
    45891098484848484352 miles/ 93,000,000 miles = 493,452,671,880 times (billion)
