Easy answer: its too hot.

The deepest man made hole is Kola Superdeep Borehole. That was a Russian experiment to see how deep you could drill into earths crust, reaching down 12,262 meters. At that depth the temperature reached 180 °C. The scientists estimated that a 15,000 meters depth the temperature would reach 300 °C, and at that temperature the drill would cease to work and the project was stopped.

vova2212 [387]
Last night Jasmine and Jay amount combined is $150+$130=$280
amount donated to charity is 1/4 of $280= $70
amount spent at an amusement park is` 40/100 x $210= $84
the remaining money = 280- (70+84)= $126

35% of their original amount is 35/100x$280=$98

so Jay's claim is not correct because the remaining money is $126 and not $98 as she Jay claims.
