Question

Every day, each person in Canada throws out about 2.2 kg of garbage. If the population of Canada is 31 900 000, the total mass of garbage that all Canadians throw out each day is

Answer 1

70 180 000 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem by multiplying the amount of garbage each Canadian throws out each day (2.2 kg) by the number of Canadians:

• 2.2 kg/person * 31 900 000 persons = 70 180 000

Thus according to this problem, all Canadians throw out 70 180 000 kg of garbage each day.
