Answer:

  • 5.375 gallons/person

Step-by-step explanation:

Total consumption of fruit juice in 2006:

  • 2.15 billion gallons

The population of the country:

  • 400 million people.

Average consumption of fruit juice per person in 2006 was:

  • 2.15 billion / 400 million =
  • 2.15 × 10⁹ / 400 × 10⁶ =
  • 21.5 × 10⁸ / 4 × 10⁸ =
  • 21.5 / 4 =
  • 5.375 gallons/person

To find how many gallons of fruit juice would your class consume multiply the average consumption by the number of your class mates.
