When you and your kids are sitting under the golden arches at the local McDonald's Playland, just know this: You're one of the reasons that America's favorite fast food chain can brag that it has sold more than a billion hamburgers. Yes, that's a billion with a "B." And it's very likely that the famous worldwide burger joint has sold many more burgers than that, given that a) McDonald's sold about 75 burgers a second globally in 2021 (per Investing.com) and b) there are 86,400 seconds in a day.

To get the per-second count, you have to divide 6.48 million by 86,400 seconds to get 75 burgers a second.
