The last-place finisher in the 2006 Nissan Golf Tournament won $9,078. How many tournaments would a person earning this much have to play in to reach $1 million?

1,000,000 / 9,078 = ?

110?

Right.

Shouldnt this be rounded up to 111? Since the exact answer is 110.156 and you cant play 110.156 tournament, you would have to play either 110 or 111 tournaments. If you only played 110 you would not have exactly 1,000,000....

To find out how many tournaments a person earning $9,078 per tournament would have to play in order to reach $1 million, we need to divide $1 million by $9,078. This will give us the total number of tournaments required to reach the desired amount.

$1,000,000 ÷ $9,078 ≈ 110.12

Since we cannot play a fraction of a tournament, we will round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, a person earning $9,078 per tournament would need to play in at least 111 tournaments to reach $1 million.
