1.20 Estimate the amount of copy or printing paper that you use every year. A 500-sheet ream
of copy paper has an approximate mass of 5 pounds (2.27 kg). Hoẇ much of this
consumption is truly necessary, and hoẇ much of your oẇn paper consumption could be
avoided? State your assumptions.
SOLUTION
For example, on average, I use 15 pages per day; then on a yearly basis, I use 5475 pages
(15 x 365).
5475 pages 5 pounds pounds of paper
( )( ) = 54.75
year 500 pages year
