To calculate: The area that can be destroyed per day in Brazil if in each minute 20 acres of rain forest destroyed.

Answer to Problem 1GP
The total area of rain forest that can be destroyed per day in Brazil is 28800 acres.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:The area of rain forest that can be destroyed per minute is 20 acres.
Calculation:
It is known that in a day there are 24 hours. The conversion of hours into is:
Total minutes in 24 hours can be calculated as:
To find the area that can be destroyed per day in Brazil, multiply the area destroyed per minute by minutes in a day.
Therefore, total rain forest destroyed in Brazil per days is 28800 acres.
