How high is the Sky

The mass is grams / the volume is 1 c³ = density.
Pressure is grams per c² = pascals.
The height is the number of cm's that gives a pressure of 101300 grams on one sq cm. That is what my answer says.
BTW: Do NOT use x for multiplication. It can't be told from a variable. Use L*W*H instead.)

Think of the pressure as the weight of a column of 1 cm cubes stacked up.
Each one weighs .0013 grams. One pascal is 101300 grams/cm² so you need enough 1 cm cubes to total that many grams. The division
101300/.0013 tells you how many cubes it takes. Each cube is 1 cm so I changed the number of cubes (cm's) to km's.
