Now it is 18 billion? Wow! (recalculating)
18 billion / 100 Total money divided by size of bill ($100) = 180, 000,000
180,000,000 * .004 Number of c notes times thickness of each bill = 720,000 inches
720,000 / 12 total inches divided by inches in a foot 60,000 feet
60,000 / 5280 Total feet divided by feet in a mile
EQUALS............................... (TA DA!!) 11.363636363636363636363636......MILES
A stack of 100 dollar bills over 11 1/4 MILES HIGH!! (or long, or deep)
How does one misplace that?
Feel free to check my math I am not used to working with such large figures. I usually deal with figures no bigger than my social security check.
Note: For these calculations I measured a twenty dollar bill. (sorry, I don't have a c note but I believe all bills are the same))
