Answer 2

Numbers

b) 292000tones

Total number of papers produced$=642000$ tonnes

Fraction of paper which is recycled$=\frac{5}{11} \ of\ total\ paper\ produced$

Hence, total quantity of the paper recycled

$= \frac{5}{11} \times 642000\ tonnes\\\\=291818.1818$

≈ 292000 tones

Hence the required quantity of paper that will be recycled is 292000 tones.
