Question

Estimate how many stacked pennies it takes to reach the height of a two story house. To calculate your estimate, you must make assumptions

Answer 1

A one story house is about 12 feet tall. A penny is 0.0598 inches tall when laying flat... there are 12 inches in a foot so 12x12 to get 144.
Then we will divide 144 inches by the pennies, which are 0.0598 inches tall.

2408 pennies exactly, and if we round down for estimation purposes,
2400 pennies
