good question.
In mathematics, a variable often represents an "unknown" quantity that has the potential to change; in computer science, it represents a place where a quantity can be stored. Variables are often contrasted with constants, which are known and unchanging.
In the Utopian world, if I had money and health, 2 constants, then the rest would be variable.
However, in reality, Money and health are the most variable aspects of my life equation.
I suppose ultimately, the only two constants we all have are life and death. The further away from the first we get, the more stable the equation becomes, however, the closer we get to the death, the figures needed to calculate reduce in size.

there is no such thing as constants, life is ever changing, you are ever changing, the world is ever changing!
constant is a mathematical term, it can not be related to life, due to the facts of nature, it is forever evolving.
you might be able to think of things that you perceive as constant, but you would be wrong to make those assumptions, for life can change in an instant, thus continuity will shift.
I.E; at the moment I see my marriage as a constant, but my wife might not feel the same and leave! thus there are no constants within your lifes journey!

at least 7600
The number is significant for my life, so it is an honest answer to your question. 7600 constants in my life will give rise to 1 variable in turn working towards a solvable equation.

Depends what the variable is.
If it were the value of your life, you could only judge that on your death bed.

There are no constants, except for constant change.
