Answer :

To determine the number of households in each of the mentioned cities based on the daily amount of garbage generated per household and the total daily garbage production in each city, we can follow these steps: 1. **Calculate the number of households in Piura:** - Total garbage produced in Piura = 436,000 tons per day - Average garbage per household per day = 3 kg - Convert tons to kg (1 ton = 1000 kg): 436,000 tons * 1000 kg/ton = 436,000,000 kg - Number of households in Piura = Total garbage produced / Average garbage per household per day = 436,000,000 kg / 3 kg = 145,333,333 households 2. **Calculate the number of households in Sullana:** - Total garbage produced in Sullana = 250,000 tons per day - Number of households in Sullana = 250,000 tons * 1000 kg/ton / 3 kg = 83,333 households 3. **Calculate the number of households in Castilla:** - Total garbage produced in Castilla = 210,000 tons per day - Number of households in Castilla = 210,000 tons * 1000 kg/ton / 3 kg = 70,000 households Therefore, based on the given average daily garbage production per household, Piura has approximately 145,333,333 households, Sullana has around 83,333 households, and Castilla has about 70,000 households. These calculations provide estimates of the number of households in each city based on the provided data.
