Question

A dime is 1.25 mm thick. How many meters high would a stack of dimes worth $50 be?

A. 0.00625 m

B. 6.25 m

C. 625 m

D. 0.625 m

Answer 1

Figure out how many dines would be in $50.
Then multiply that number by 1.25

Answer 2

10 dimes = 1 dollar
10(50) = 500 dimes
500(1.25)mm = 625mm
625 (0.001) = 0.625 m

Answer is D. 0.625 m
