hi would $820 million be enough to house uganda

Question

i need to know if $820 million would be enough to house all of uganda  for my history assement please help!!!!!

Answer 1

Ben,

 

With the additional information you gave to Mark M., here is what you need to do:

 

Find out how many families can be housed with $820,000,000 at a cost of $200,000 per family.

 

That is

 

($820,000,000) / ($200,000 per family) = 4100 families

 

Now look up somewhere an estimate of how many families are in Uganda.  If the number is less than or equal to 4100, you can house them.  But I suspect there are many more than 4100 families in Uganda, so the answer is probably no.
