Answer:

33,750,000 pounds of animals were processed during 5 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the average animal weight is 1350 lbs and 5,000 beef are slaughtered in one day, the total amount for one day would be: (1350)(5000) = 6,750,000 lbs.

Now we need to multiply this number by five since we want to know the total of pounds of animals processed during 5 days.

6,750,000 (5) = 33,750,000 pounds of animals.
