[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children) $9,000 per metric ton. So... $0.2551 per ounce. :) Copper is $8,300 per metric ton or $0.2353 per ounce. And yeah, 35,274 ounces in a metric ton. :) permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 24 points 2 years ago (3 children) How much is that in football fields? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] InvestBurnout@fedia.io 26 points 2 years ago About 10 screaming eagles per 5.72 permalink fedilink source parent [–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 child) A football field is 57,600 square feet, so if you took 35,274 ounces of cocoa and spread it over 57,600 square feet, you'd get 0.6124 ounces per square foot. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] rbos@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago You would also ruin the cocoa. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) And how many cubic Smoots? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago A friend of mine growing up was a Smoot, it was always fun walking across the bridge. The numbers are regularly repainted and the repainting was also done by the city when resurfacing the bridge in the 80s.... lastly it can't be understated how hilarious it is that the man who was a measurement went on to be a chairman of ANSI and president of the ISO. permalink fedilink source parent [–] blackluster117@possumpat.io 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) You just learned me something.
