How much is 100 million?

Previously, I was wonder how much actually 1 million is. How to describe it. But today I start to thinking how much actually is 100 million.

  1. Basic description.

    • I like eat chicken rice, so how many dishes of chicken rice that need to be sold so that total sales is 100 million. If a chicken rice is $3.50 per dish, then 28,571,428 dishes need to be sold. All Malaysian need to eat at least a dish of the chicken rice to make up to this number.

  2. Expensive description

    • The gold price per gram is around $73.50. Therefore, 100 million can buy 1,360,544 gram of gold or in other word, 1.36 tonnes of gold. Almost a weight of a Camry.

  3. Luxury description

    • The size of $100 is 150mm x 69mm, a 100 million can make up to 1,035,000 m2, which is the area of 75.5 football fields.

I wonder how much of heat that can be produced by a 100 million of $1 notes. Can use to heat up water for my shower ah?

  1. I cannot imagine how much heat can 100 million produce nor can I guess how high it can make the water in my swimming pool rise. What I know is that we will suffer like hell if the Company gets 100 million sales this year....

    I also would like to know if 100 million is enough to fill some loud mouthed cun coward's cum S.O.B.'s arse.

    Calorific value of paper (source from a website) = 12,000 kJ/kg

    Our normal quality A4 size paper weight about 80g with 210 x 297 mm dimension. No sure about the thickness but let's assume 0.2 mm.
    Hence the density of paper is about:

    0.08 / (0.21 x 0.297 x 0.0002)
    = 6,400 kg/m3

    Assuming that our RM1 notes have the same density with this A4 paper.

    The dimension of RM1 notes = 65mm x 120mm x 0.3mm

    Weight of 1 pcs of RM1 =
    0.065 x 0.12 x 0.0003 x 6,400
    = 0.015 kg

    100 million of RM1 notes will weight about 1.5 million kg or 1.5 tons (heavier than Camry)

    Total energy from burning all this notes = 12,000 x 1.5 M

    = 18,000,000 MJ


    Domestic water temp = 25 degC
    Temp for Ding's shower = 32 degC
    Volume of water required = 75 liters (also a static figure from web)
    Efficiency of direct fire boiler = 70%

    Total energy required =
    75 x 4.2 x (32-25) / 0.7 = 3,150 kJ

    With 100 million of RM1 notes, Ding can shower for 5.8 millions days!!!!

    Can even give hot shower for all the staff in Dalkia Asia Pacific staffs for the rest of their life.

    KJ being an engineering company, let's calculate something related to power and a/c

    Typical efficiency of incineration plant is about 20% (for electricity)

    100M can produce 3,600,000 kJ or electric power

    KJ office space is about 5,000 SqrF
    Assume cooling required = 45 btu/sqrF

    Total cooling energy = 5,000 x 45
    = 225,000 BTU/Hr or 18.7 RT

    Assuming efficiency of the split unit to be 1.3 kW/RT, we will require 24 kW or 86,400 kJ per hour

    100M of RM1 notes burned using incineration plant will able to produce electricity to operate a/c for KJ office for 42 hours or about 4 days.

    Gosh...never notice the post was so damn long.

    I'm sure there're will be mistakes and spelling/grammer error somewhere.

    Go ahead, blast it all you want!

  5. O_o, that is good.
    for sure anon is a mech. engineer.
    salute.

  6. confirm anon is yk, other engineer in kj cannot even count from 1 to 5. 100 million in 1 dollar notes is enough for me to wipe my ass for approximately 100 million years assuming is i shit everyday, sorry my maths is doggone crap

    Wah so long story...

    I read until i feel zzzz...

    Sorry to say that...

    It is true la...

    i not understand what you meant "anoy"... i am not genius as ding...

    Please dont write somethings some complex like complex math i & j

    Anoy you are "cheong"?

    Cause i read the Osama's comment that you are "cheong" from KJ

    if yes, please admit it ok.

    Else write your true name ok.

  9. Terence and Titan : Yk is YK and he is a steady guy....YK won't waste his time to browse the web just to facilitate his postings and he is not one to show off . YK is not that Kiasu nor a coward la bros.

    Difficult to go back on the correct path once the damage is done huh?

    Pity that Balls Carrying cannot be done over the internet...carry a bit here, carry a bit there, buy something for him, buy something for her and everyone will forget what has been done or said....HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA. Neways, will ignore all singled celled paramezium from now on.

    Thank you SK Ding. You being too humble to salute... if someone we should salute to, it should be you for putting up this great blog for all of us to release. **SALUTE**

    Titan, besides the obvious, I don't know who's who that leave comments in this blog....including you. Not that I'm not interested but is it necessary? Just enjoy SK's posting and visitors' comments

    Terrence, KJ engineers, executives and staffs are much better that what you mentioned. They might be a frustrated bunch of people who don't get treatment they deem fair from their bosses BUT i bet you my last penny they are all GENIUS is their own way.

    Jamie, I agree YK is no show off and a steady person. Almost everyone in the company have high regards and respect on this chap. I apologise if I perceived to be showing off but I can assure you that I'm just having fun posting and replying SK's posting. FYI, anonymous could be anyone and be more than I person (I can confirm that). Who can take credit on her/his posting/work if she/he is anonymous?
    Anyway, for old time sake here goes:

    P.A.R.A.M.E.C.I.U.M.
    Pronunciation: \ˌpa-rə-ˈmē-sh(ē-)əm, -sē-əm\
    Any of various freshwater ciliate protozoans of the genus Paramecium, usually oval and having an oral groove for feeding.

  11. Hey...thanks for the correction on the singled celled organism.....but pls don't go to the extent of being predictable....HAHAHAHHHHAAAA

    Any comments on "Balls Carrying" aka "Fanning the Satay Fire" aka "Suck up", etc,etc,etc? Actually I think you don't have to comment as some example can be seen peeking out its head in the post above mine.....

    For the record, I do understand that you are just replying to SK's postings and everyone has their own views on matters ( 2 every1 his/her own huh? )....keep posting and having fun bro. The shit flinging from me stops here k?

  12. i was joking when i said kj engineers cannot count from 1 to 5, k? please dun take it to heart. all kj engineers including their managers are top stuff, the best of the best in all they do and they are a very hardworking bunch of fellows i've ever seen. and they are kind and honest too.

  13. sure or not cutie, i doubt your sincerity.

    my experience told me that most of the engineers are stupid and most of the managers are lier and most of the directors are ... XD

    Jamie, not really sure what you are talking about...seriously.

    Anyway, "shit flinging" made all the posting more 'active' as long as no offence taken personally. PIECE....opss..i meant PEACE!

    No worries Terrence, I am sure all the engineers and managers are understanding too.

    Will reduce posting and keep low profile now, must avoid SK's tracking system.
