The fraction of the global human population living in developed nations is currently 17 percent. If each person in the developed world consumes on average 100 kg of meat per year, how much meat will be consumed in the developed world in 1 year?

The amount of meat consumed is 1.326 x kg.

Explanation:

The current global human population is approximately 7.8 billion, of which with respect to the given question 17% lives in developed nations.

Population of people living in developed nations = 17% of 7.8 billion

                                                       = x 7 800 000 000

                                                       = 1 326 000 000

If each person consume 100 kg of meat per year, the amount of meat consumed in the developed world in 1 year = 1 326 000 000 x 100

                                                       = 132 600 000 000

The amount of meat consumed by developed world in 1 year is 132 600 000 000 kg (i.e 1.326 x kg).
