How many steel cans used for soft drinks and beer do you thinks are made from steel in the UK per year?
0 - 1 billion- - Whilst one billion seems like an incredibly large number
there are about 55 million people living in the UK and they would only need to drink 19 cans of soft drink or
beer (in a steel can) to give a total number of one billion. The actual number is quite a lot more, try again. |
1 - 3 billion - To reach a number of three billion everyone in the UK would need to drink
about 55 cans of soft drink or beer (in a steel can) during one year. That's not far off the right number but its still a bit higher. |
3 - 5 billion - Correct, on average one person drinks about 80 cans of soft drink or beer (in a steel can)
during one year. giving an overall figure of 3.5 billion cans. |
5 - 7 billion - - I'm afraid that you have over estimated how many steel cans are used by a little, Try again. |
7 - 10 billion - I'm afraid that you have over estimated how many steel cans are used by a little, Try again. |
