Guess whose portrait is on all that money...

mr1931S

You have one billion dollars in front of you...it's neatly bundled and stacked and the Federal Reserve notes are all the same denomination...the billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) weighs 11 tons...

Whose portrait is on the notes,all the same denomination, that comprise the 11 tons of money,one billion dollars, in front of you?

Is it Washington ($1)?
Is it Jefferson ($2)?
Is it Lincoln ($5)?
Is it Hamilton ($10)?
Is it Jackson ($20)?
Is it Grant ($50)?
Is it Franklin ($100)?
Is it McKinley ($500)?
Is it Cleveland ($1000)?
Is it Madison ($5000)?
Is it Chase ($10000)?

for amusement purposes only...no one will receive the billion dollars,or any part of it, for giving the correct answer...or for that matter,incorrect answer either...

......drum roll....

ClarkofKent answered correctly!

One billion dollars in Franklin notes weighs 22,000 lbs. (11 tons)...

Thank you, thank you.... please... please.... thank you.... please be seated.... thank you....

The approximate weight of a currency note, regardless of denomination is (1) one gram. At 454 grams/lb.... well... it comes out pretty close.

22,000 lbs. of $100 bills = $998,800,000
$1,000,000,000 in $100 bills = 22,026 lbs.

Thats about the size of an entire master bedroom completely filled with $100s stack to the ceiling.
You could buy a few nice coins with that huh.
