If an 8-Ball of Coke Weighed as Much as an Actual 8-Ball ...

... how much would it cost?

First off, how much does an 8-ball weigh?

A billiard ball weighs between 5.5 and 6 ounces, so let's call it 5.75 ounces. With 28.4 grams to the ounce, that turns out to be 163.3 grams. An 8-ball of coke is a third of an ounce, which would be about 9.5 grams. So our billiard ball of coke would be equivalent to about 17 8-balls. At $175 (more or less) for an 8-ball, that gives us a price of $2975.
