Best Answer

According to the United States Mint each Dime Weighs Exactly 35.000589 grains You can safely round that off to 35 because even the best powder scales are not accurate enough to detect the .000589 on the end

There are 44.285 grains in a penny. According to other information, a penny weighs 3.11 grams and one gram is equal to .07 grains. So 3.11 grams divided by .07 grains equals 44. 28571428571 or 44.285 or 44.29 grains depending on how fussy you want to be.

The answer above is wrong! the .07 is ,06499. That comes out to 47.993 grains.

to divide 3.11 and bring it out to 12 places is wrong since the .07 is not even correct to two places. It should be .06 if rounding to nearest half. And the answer is only good to two places if that.
