If a person consumes 5.5 × 105 kcal in a day and one barrel of oil can produce 3.7 × 106 kcal, what is the equivalent of energy consumed per year by that person in terms of barrels of oil?
5.5 x 105 kcal/person day / 3.7x 106 kcal/bbl =....... bbl /person day x 365 days / year= ......bbl/person-yr
btw.....THAT is an enormous number of kcal per day!!!! You sure it isn't just Cal?
