How long until the debt expressed in a pile of pennies equals the mass of the Earth?

15 x 10 14th x 2.5 x10 -3rd

Debt in cents times weight of a zinc cent in kgs. Could anyone help, I'm not practiced at multiplying exponents.. :oops:

Ok, found the info on online. Could someone confirm:

$15 T works out to 3.75 x 10 (12th) kg. (zinc cent 2.5g)

My math:

(mass of Earth = 5.9742 × 10power27 grams)/ (3.11 grams per CU cent) / (100 cents per dollar) = answer

I feel better now. We won't exceed the Earth / Penny debt weight ratio in my lifetime. I'll sleep better tonight.
