Answer:

0.875 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of plastic water bottles bought in the United States every day

= 140,000,000

Length of each bottle = 0.25 meters

Total Length of the plastic bottles = 0.25 X 140,000,000 =35,000,000 meters

Length of the equator around =  40,000,000 meters

Therefore, the number of times the earth's equator can be circled by a line of plastic bottles used in the United States every day

= 35,000,000/40,000,000

=0.875 times

It means the length of plastic bottles will go around 87.5% of the equator.
