How much would it cost to cover the entire land area of United States with dollar bills? To answer this question, you may find the following information useful: The contiguous United States (all of the states minus Alaska and Hawaii) can be approximated as a rectangle that measures 1000 miles north to south and 3000 miles east to west, while Alaska has about one-fifth the area of the contiguous states and Hawaii is small enough to be ignored for this rough calculation. Also, note that a dollar bill measures around 6.5cm×15.5cm6.5cm×15.5cm.

It would cost approximately $925,455,484 million to cover continental US and Alaska with $1 bills.

Explanation:

the area of a one dollar bill = 6.5 cm x 15.5 cm = 100.75 sq cm

the approximate area of continental US + Alaska = (1,000 miles x 3,000 miles) x 1.2 = 3,600,000 sq miles

each sq mile is roughly 2.58999 sq km, so the total area in sq km = 9,323,964 sq km

1 sq km = 1,000,000 sq meters

each sq meter = 10,000 sq cm

1 sq m = 10,000 / 100.75 = 99.25558 bills

1 sq km = 99,255,583.13 bills

9,323,964 sq km = 925,455,483,900,000 bills
