82.125 because 36.5 x 2.25 = 82.125 tons of fruit

Answer:

82.125 million tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The U.S. produces 36.5 million tons of fruit each year.

To calculate the amount of fruits It produces in 2.25 years we multiply the production of 1 year to 2.25 years.

It produces fruits in 2.25 years = 36.5 × 2.25

                                                   = 82.125 million tons

The U.S. produces 82.125 million tons of fruit in 2.25 years.
