The height of Gateway Arch shown on Missouri quarter is 630 feet or 7,560 inches.Find how many 4-inch stacks of quarters make up the height of Gateway Arch.If there are 58 quarter in a 4-inch stack, how many quarters high is the arch?

Respuesta :

To do this you want to divide 7560 by 4.  This leaves you with 1845.  Therefore, you need 1845 4-inch stacks to build that high.  You are not done though.  You need to multiply 1845 by 58. This gives you 107,010.  It would take 107,010 quarters to get to the top.
