1.20 Estimate the amount of copy or printinḡ paper that you use every year. A 500-sheet
ream of copy paper has an approximate mass of 5 pounds (2.27 kḡ). How much of this
consumption is truly necessary, and how much of your own paper consumption could be
avoided? State your assumptions.
SOLUTION
For example, on averaḡe, I use 15 paḡes per day; then on a yearly basis, I use 5475
paḡes (15 x 365).
5475 paḡes 5 pounds pounds of
