Question: how many semi trailers would be required to haul 500 million dollars worth of pennies.


ChatGPT


To calculate how many semi-trailers would be required to haul $500 million worth of pennies, we need to know the weight of the pennies and the capacity of the semi-trailers.


The weight of a penny is approximately 2.5 grams. Now, let's convert this weight to pounds (since semi-trailer capacities are often measured in pounds):


1 gram = 0.00220462 pounds
2.5 grams = 2.5 * 0.00220462 pounds = 0.00551155 pounds


Next, we need to find out how many pennies are in $1. To do this, we divide $1 by the value of a penny, which is $0.01:


$1 / $0.01 = 100 pennies


Now, we can calculate the number of pennies in $500 million:


$500,000,000 * 100 pennies/dollar = 50,000,000,000 pennies


Next, we need to calculate the total weight of these pennies:


50,000,000,000 pennies * 0.00551155 pounds/penny ≈ 275,577,500 pounds


Now, we need to know the capacity of a typical semi-trailer. A standard semi-trailer in the United States can usually carry around 40,000 pounds.


Finally, we divide the total weight of the pennies by the capacity of a semi-trailer:


275,577,500 pounds / 40,000 pounds/trailer ≈ 6,889.4375 trailers


Since you can't have a fraction of a trailer, you would need approximately 6,890 semi-trailers to haul $500 million worth of pennies.
from a weight perspective it makes sense. Would the ~$72,500 worth of pennies in each truck fit inside the cargo hold?
