What are standard briefcase dimensions?

There is not an agreed standard size.


How many 20 dollar bills will fit in a briefcase?

To determine how many $20 bills will fit in a briefcase, we need to consider the dimensions of the briefcase and the size of the bills. A standard briefcase typically measures around 18-20 inches in length, 12-14 inches in width, and 4-6 inches in depth. A US dollar bill is approximately 2.61 inches wide, 6.14 inches long, and 0.0043 inches thick. By calculating the volume of the briefcase and the volume of a single bill, we can estimate how many bills could fit inside.


Can a million dollars fit in a briefcase?

It depends on the size of the briefcase and the packets of money you have. According to an elegant test done by the creators of the site: http://www.cockeyed.com/inside/million/million.html A stack of $100 bills would be 40 inches tall. These bills will not quite fit into a standard briefcase. In the test, a standard briefcase held about $780,000.00 A "Captain's Case" used by pilots and lawyers holds just over $1 million. This is a "double-wide" briefcase, but a briefcase nonetheless. The 5" Halliburton Stainless Steel briefcase has the look of an executive briefcase and holds $1 million in $100 bills almost exactly. The bills, in $100 bills, weighs about 20 pounds. The hundred dollar bill is the largest generally available to the public, so you have to consider this as the "gold standard" for the answer to the question. If the money is in smaller bills, you need more bills to make $1 million, and more space to hold them all. No briefcase tested held $2 million in hundreds, so it's safe to say that in order to fit into any briefcase generally available, you million needs to be made up of mostly $100 bills.
