Select the letter of the correct answer. Growers around the world produce about 3.2 x 107 metric tons of sunflowers each year. One
metric ton is the same as 1.1 short tons. How many short tons of sunflowers do worldwide
growers produce annually?

3.5264 x

Explanation:

The metric ton is used as a unit of mass. The metric ton in British units can be represented as 2240 pounds or long ton whereas in United state is termed as 1.102 short ton.

In the given question, it has been mentioned that the growers around the world produce about 3.2 x a metric ton of sunflower.

So the short ton produced will be

= ( 3.2 x ) x 1.102

= 3.5264 x short ton.

Thus, 3.5264 x is the correct answer.
