Question

The length of a dollar bill is 6.06 inches. Imagine that dollar bills have been laid end to end in a row. What would be the value of a 100-mile-long row of bills?

Answer 1

1 mile is 63360 inches so 63,360*100 is 6,336,000 6336000/6.06 is about 105544 so $105544

Answer 2

Answer:

$\ 1,045,544.55$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$1\ mile=63,360\ inches$

so

convert miles to inches

$100\ miles=100*63,360=6,336,000\ inches$

By proportion

$\frac{1}{6.06}\frac{dollar\ bill}{inches}=\frac{x}{6,336,000}\frac{dollars\ bill}{inches} \\ \\x=6,336,000/6.06\\ \\x=1,045,544.55\ dollars\ bill$

$1,045,544.55\ one\ dollars\ bill=\ 1,045,544.55$
