Is a million stack of 20$ bills higher than the rim of a basketball?

Yes it is. You wanna know how I know it?

First of all I needed to find out how thick is a 20$ bill and its .0043 then I need to divide a million by 20 and its 50.000. After that I needed to times 50000 by .0043 and that's 215. A regular basketball rim is 10 feet tall and that in inches is 120. So that's how I found out how is a million stack of 20$ bill is higher than the rim of a basketball.

  1. Awesome work Reige! Well done on solving a difficult problem. I can that you had to go through a lot of steps to solve the question. I wonder how much money would be in a stack of $20 bills at the height of the hoop?
