Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf 9812.16\ L\ of\ air}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A person breathes 6.814 L of air in a minute.

1 minute = 6.814 L

Minutes in a day:

= 1 × 24 × 60 (24 hours in a day; 60 minutes in an hour)

= 1440 minutes

Volume of air that person breathes in a day:

1 minute = 6.814 L of air

1440 minutes = 6.814 L × 1440

1 day = 9812.16 L of air


\rule[225]{225}{2}
