If paper products accounted for 33% of the total MSW recycled in 2010 and about 7m3 of landfill space is saved for each metric ton of paper products recycled, calculate how much landfill space was saved by recycling paper products in 2010 in the United States.

Volume of landfill space saved by recycling paper products in 2010 in the United States = 175.56 million m³ of land space

Note: The Table in the attachment below Shows The Total MSW (in Metric Tons) And Percent MSW Recycled Over Time In The United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determining the amount in metric tons of paper products recycled

In the year 2010, a total of 76 million metric tons of MSW was recycled.

Recycling of paper products accounted for 33% of the total MSW recycled in 2010.

The amount of paper products recycled in millions of metric ton = 0.33 × 76 million  = 25.08 million metric tons of paper products.

Step 2: Determining the volume of landfill space saved in 2010 by recycling paper products

7m³ of landfill space is saved for each metric ton of paper products.

Volume of landfill space saved by recycling paper products in 2010 in the United States = total amount of paper products recycled  × 7 m³/metric ton

Volume of landfill space saved = 25.08 million metric tons  × 7  m³/metric ton

Volume of landfill space saved = 175.56 million m³ of land space

Therefore, volume of landfill space saved by recycling paper products in 2010 in the United States = 175.56 million m³ of land space
