In 2007, Procter and Gamble spent $ 5.2 billion on advertising. Express the quantity in terms of height in kilometers of a stack of $ 1 bills. Assume 10 bills per millimeter.
Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
10 bills per millimeter means 10,000 bills per meter
How many 10,000s in 5,200,000,000?
5,200,000,000 / 10,000 = 520,000 meters
How many km in a meter? 1000
520,000 / 1000 = 520km

What a weird question. Common Core?
