ABOUT 100,000,000 (one hundred million) pencils are made in the united states every year. would you like to find out how many pencils are made per second? use a calculator. divide the number by 365 and divide that number by 24, then divide that by 60, and then divide it by sixty again. that number will be the estimated number of pencils per minute. the answer could be a fraction, because I don't know I've never done it. Acually if you do that equation I believe it gives you the number of pencils made every second.
