  12. Fascinating Examples • The body of a 150-lb person contains 2.3 x 10–4 lb of copper. What percent of the person’s body weight is composed of copper?

  13. Fascinating Examples • In a recent tax year, the IRS averaged collecting $7,000 per person in the U.S. If the population of taxpayers in that year was 140,000,000, find the total revenue they collected.
