What is the value of 16 metric tons of nickels?

Answer 1

US nickels: There are 3,200,000 nickels in 16 metric tons.

• A US nickel weighs 5 grams.
• 1 metric ton is 1,000,000 grams.
• So you would take 1,000,000/5 (a nickel = 5 grams) and you get 200,000 Per ton
• After that, you would multiply 200,000 * 16 because you want 16 metric tons worth of nickels: 200,000 *16=320,000.

Canadian nickels: There are modern Canadian nickels in 16 metric tons.

• Modern Canadian nickels weigh 3.95 gm.
• Thus there are 1,000,000 / 3.95 = 253,164.557 Canadian nickels per ton
• Multiplying by 16 gives 4050632.91 coins, or 4,050,633 rounded to the next whole number of nickels.
