Question

If you stacked dollar bills then how many miles tall would the national debt be? (Note: a dollar bill is 0.0043 inches tall.) (National debt: 29,806,441,024,580)

Answer 1

2,022,848.74 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the national debt is 29,806,441,024,580, you will need to stack 29,806,441,024,580 dollar bills, so the height will be

29,806,441,024,580 x 0.0043 inches = 128,167,696,400 inches

Now, we need to convert it from inches to miles. Since 1 mile = 63,360 inches, we need to divide 128,167,696,400 by 63,360 to find the number of miles, so

128,167,696,400 ÷ 63,360 = 2,022,848.74 miles

Therefore, the national debt will be 2,022,848.74 miles tall.
