Final answer:
To visualize a trillion dollars, you can calculate how many $10,000 stacks (each with one hundred $100 bills) you'd need, resulting in one hundred billion stacks, which could then be used to estimate the height of a money pile covering a football field.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question involves understanding and working with large numbers, particularly how many stacks it would take to equal a trillion dollars if each stack contains one hundred $100 bills and is worth $10,000. Using both the concept of volume and multiplication, we start by calculating the volume of a single stack to be 9 cubic inches.
Since a trillion dollars would be one hundred billion ten thousand dollars (100 billion x $10,000), we would have one hundred billion stacks. By spreading these stacks over the area of a football field, we could make an approximation of the height of the money pile.
We can then determine the total value of the dimes in the bottle by multiplying the number of dimes by 10 cents. For example, if the bottle contains 50 dimes, the total value would be 50 dimes x $0.10 = $5.00.
