Respuesta :

Answer:

bananas consumed per person per year are 4.42 × [tex]10^{-2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

consumers in average = 5.15 million metric tons

population = 319 million

solution

we get here bananas are consumed per person per year that is express as

bananas consumed = total banana consumed ÷ ( total population × 365 ) .................1

put here value and we get

bananas consumed = [tex]\frac{5.15 \times 1000}{319 \times 365}[/tex]

so, bananas consumed per person per year are 0.044231 kg = 4.42 × [tex]10^{-2}[/tex]
