5 thousand million*
so is it
((6.02x10^23)/(5x10^9)) x 100?
Why the 100?
You have 10 apples. You want to divide 10 apples among 5 people. That would be 10/5 = 2 apples each.
So you have 6.02 x 10^23 pennies. You have 5 x 10^9 people. Wouldn't that be
6.02 x 10^23/5 x 10^9 = ??. A lot of pennies in a mole of pennies. :).
I figure that is slightly more than 1 x 10^14 pennies and with each one worth 0.01 cents, that makes each person receiving 1 x 10^12 dollars? I would settle for that. BUT, how long would it take you to count that many pennies. More time than you and I have on this earth.
whoops, I mean divide
((6.02x10^23)/(5x10^9)) / 100
and i got the answer 1.204E12 dollars per person.
I divided it by 100 to find the amount of dollars, so all the pennies divided by 100 = amount of dollars
