How many dimes can fit in a 5 gallon jug?

Answer 1

To calculate the number of dimes that can fit in a 5-gallon jug, we need to determine the volume of a dime and then divide the total volume of the jug by the volume of a single dime. The volume of a dime can be approximated by its dimensions, which are about 1.35 mm in thickness and 17.91 mm in diameter. Using the formula for the volume of a cylinder (V = πr^2h), we can estimate that a dime has a volume of about 0.0000000007 cubic meters. A 5-gallon jug is equivalent to approximately 0.0189 cubic meters, so dividing the volume of the jug by the volume of a dime gives us an estimate of around 27 billion dimes that can fit in a 5-gallon jug.

Answer 2

Well, isn't that a happy little question! You see, a standard dime has a diameter of about 0.705 inches. With a bit of gentle math, we can estimate that around 10,000 dimes could fit in a 5-gallon jug. Just imagine all those shiny dimes creating a lovely sound as you pour them in!

Answer 3

Well, honey, a standard dime has a diameter of about 0.705 inches and a thickness of 0.053 inches. A 5-gallon jug has a volume of approximately 1,155 cubic inches. So, if we do the math, you could fit around 7,547 dimes in that jug if you stack them perfectly. But good luck getting them all in there without spilling a few!
