How many dollar bills does it take to go around the earth?
Let's assume you want to go around the earth at the equator. (That is known as a great circle, just as an aside. ) So the distance around the earth at the equator is 24,901.5 miles and let's say a dollar is about 6 inches long. One mile= 63360 inches 63360 x 24901.5 = 1,577,759,040 inches to go around the equator. Now divide that by 6 and we have the number of bills. 1577759040 / 6 = 262,959,840 262,959,840 bills to go around the earth at the equator! And in these hard times, that's a lot of cash!

There is no "why", because it doesn't make sense. The equatorial circumference of the Earth is about 24,900 miles. If you try to arrange six billion things along that line, you can only allow an average of about 1/4 inch per each ... hardly a "stretch".
