According to the United States Census Bureau, on September 1, 2014, the population of the United States was increasing by 1 person every 12 seconds. At this rate, by how much would the
population of the United States increase in 1 year?

2,628,000 people per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 person every 12 seconds. There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. So, there are 60 / 12 = 5 people every minute.

There are 60 minutes in an hour. 5 * 60 = 300 people per hour.

There are 24 hours in a day. 24 * 300 = 7,200 people per day.

There are 365 days per year. 7,200 * 365 = 2,628,000 people per year.

Hope this helps!
