How high is a stack of 10 trillion dollar bills? - Answers

Working with a US 10 trillion (1 trillion =1000 billion, 1 billion = 1000 million) and an average dollar bill width of 0.0043in, you would actually have a stack which is 678,661.6 miles high. To put this in perspective, you would have 3 stacks, each of which just about reaching the moon. To make things even more interesting, you've also got the old UK way, which would be (1 trillion = 1 million million million). In this case you would have a stack 678,661,616,100 miles high, or 0.115454 light years. To put this into perspective, you would have long passed Pluto (more than 100 times past), WAY passed the kuiper belt, and be maybe 1/12th of the way towards the Oort cloud - with dollar notes...
