Answer:
87 pounds!
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an Argentinian person consumes 145 pounds every year.
And an American consumes [tex]$ \frac{3}{5} $[/tex] pounds as mush as an Argentinian.
This means that an American consumes [tex]$ \frac{3}{5} \times 145 = 3 \times 29 = 87$[/tex].
Therefore, an American consumes 87 pounds per year.
