How many frames are in Star Wars?

How many frames are in the original theatrical release of Star Wars? I'm looking for a pretty exact figure. Please show your work.
Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The original theatrical cut of A New Hope was 121 minutes. The frame rate of a film projector is 24 frames/second.

This leaves a simple calculation:

121 min x 60 min/s=7260 s x 24 frames/second=174,240 frames plus or minus 720 frames to account for the uncertainty in the running time.

Final answer: Between 173,520 to 174,960 frames.
