To estimate the 'as discarded' density of 1000 kg of typical residential waste, we can use the given data on the percent composition of various waste components. The 'as discarded' density is the density of the waste when it is disposed of, taking into account its composition. We'll need to calculate the volume of each waste component based on its percent by mass and then determine the overall density.

  1. Calculate the mass of each waste component in the 1000 kg of residential waste:
  • Food Waste: 15% of 1000 kg = 0.15 * 1000 kg = 150 kg
  • Paper: 45% of 1000 kg = 0.45 * 1000 kg = 450 kg
  • Cardboard: 15% of 1000 kg ____ ______ _______ ___ ___ __________ __________ ________ _________ ____ _____.
