Some company prints about 39,000,000 pieces of paper each day. The printing presses run 24 hour a day. How many pieces of paper are printed, to the nearest whole number? a) Each hour (round to whole number as needed) b) Each minute (round to whole number as needed) c) Each second (round to whole number as needed)

Since there are 24 hours in a day, a) 39,000,000/24 Since there are 1440 minutes in a day, 39,000,000/1440
