The document outlines a guesstimate problem to estimate the number of McDonald burgers sold in a single store in Delhi over one day, specifically on a weekend. The approach uses a top-down method, calculating total sales based on factors like hours of operation, table occupancy, and average burgers consumed per person. The final estimate concludes that approximately 1,420 burgers are sold in a day at one McDonald's outlet.

Approach :
I am following the Top down approach

Equation :
Total # of hamburgers sold in Delhi through one outlet = No. of hours * Avg # of
tables* Avg % occupancy * Avg no. of burgers per person * Avg time taken by a
person to eat.

Lets calculate the working hours


Total working hours = 12 hours

Peak Hours in a day = 1-4 PM and 8-10PM. = Occupancy 100%


10AM to 12 PM is the non-peak hours lets consider occupancy at that time as 30%

For other non-peak hours lets consider the occupancy to be 50%.

Avg # of tables in a outlet = 20


Assuming 3 person seat on each table.

Lets calculate Average no. of burgers eaten by one person -

Guesstimate 2
Lets assume 70% people order only 1 burger and 30% people might order 2
burgers.
Avg burger per person will be = 1.3

There might be some customers that will not order burger but will order fries,
McPuff etc.

Considering this number to be as negligible.

Burger sold in peak hours = 5 hours * 100% occupancy * 20 tables * 3


customers per table * 1.3 burgers per person = 390 burgers
Avg time taken by each customer in an outlet to order and eat = 30 mins.

Total burgers sold in peak hours = 390* 2 = 780 burgers.


Burger sold in non - peak hours = 7 hours * 50% occupancy * 20 seats * 3
customers per table * 1.3 burgers per person + 2 hours * 30% occupancy * 20
seats * 3 customers per table * 1.3 burgers per person = 320 burgers
Avg time taken by each customer in an outlet to order and eat = 30 mins.

Total burgers sold in non-peak hours = 320* 2 = 640 burgers.

Total burgers sold through one store dining in a day = 780+640 = 1420 burgers.
