businessinsider.com - 15 Facts About McDonald’s That Will Blow Your Mind
fact #1 - McDonald’s serves 1% of the world’s population every day
United Nations estimate that the world population is in excess of 7 billion people.
That’s 7 000 000 000 or 7x109 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population]
7 000 000 000 x 0.01 = 70 000 000 or 70 millions

fact #2 - McDonald’s sells more than 75 hamburgers every second
There’s 60 second to the minute and 60 minutes to the hour and 24 hours to the day (do I need to quote a source on that one? Google it if you don’t belive me)
75 x 60 x 60 x 24 = 6 480 000 or about 7 millions

So, 7 million burgers served to 70 million people…
Is the fact that would blow my mind that only 1/10 of all orders at McD acctually is for a burger? Because yeah, I find that hard to belive.
