How many quarters can be stacked up to the height of the eiffel tower??

Question

please help

Answer 1

I am not sure exactly how many it would take, but I know that we could estimate.  1st try to figure out how many quarters does it take to stack up to a foot, then find the height in ft of the eiffel tower, and multiply this number by the number of quarters it took to stack up to a ft.  

Just as an example: if it takes 40 quarters to a ft and the height of tower is 1000 ft (not sure), then it would take 40,000 quarters to stack up to eiffel tower.

Answer 2

The tower is

( a ) 300.65 metres ( 300,650 mm ) ( 986 ft ) to the Eiffel roof, and

( b ) 324 metres ( 324,000 mm ) ( 1,063 ft ) to its antenna

A quarter is 2.0 mm thick

Thus

( a ) 300,650 mm / 2.0 Quarters per mm = 150,325 Quarters

( b ) 324,000 mm / 2.0 Quarters per mm = 162,000 Quarters

Answer 3

A US quarter coin is 1.75 mm thick.  (0.00175 meters)

The Eiffel Tower is 324 meters to the top of the antenna/spire.

Do the math.
