Money Weight Formula
Total Weight = (Amount / Denomination) × Weight per BillLet’s calculate the weight of $500,000 in $20 bills:
Amount = $500,000
Denomination = $20
Weight per Bill = 1 gram
Total Weight = (500,000 / 20) × 1 gram = 25,000 grams = 25 kilogramsThis calculation shows that $500,000 in $20 bills would weigh approximately 25 kilograms or 55 pounds.
