Answer:
China produced 18% of the world's wheat yield in 2015.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the percentage of the world's wheat yield China produced in 2015, we will divide the quantity of wheat China produced by the total quantity of wheat produced globally and then multiply by 100%.
From the question,
Wheat produced globally in 2015 = 734.1 million tons
Wheat produced by China in 2015 = 130.2 million tons
Percentage of the world's wheat yield China produced in 2015 =
(130.2 million tons / 734.1 million tons) × 100%
= 0.17736 × 100%
= 17.736%
= 18% ( to the nearest whole number)
Hence, China produced 18% of the world's wheat yield in 2015.
