Question
If 50 one-cent coins were stacked on top of each other in a column, the column would be approximately 3 
inches tall. At this rate, which of the following is closest to the number of one-cent coins it would take to make an 8-inch-tall column?
- 75
- 100
- 200
- 39
The correct answer is: 100
HINT – Find the no of coins used to make 1 inch tall column .
SOLUTION – It is given that
No of coins used to make 3 ( = 
) inches tall column = 50
No of coins used to make 1 inch tall column
= 
= 
inches
No of coins used to make 8 inch tall column = 
8
= 
= 103.22
So, according to questions the closet answer is 100
Hence, option B is correct
