Answer:

About 700 billion bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$1oz \approx 28g$

$1g = 25\ billion\ bacteria$

Required

Number of bacteria in 1 oz

$1g = 25\ billion\ bacteria$

Multiply both sides by 28

$28 * 1g = 25\ billion\ bacteria * 28$

$28g = 700\ billion\ bacteria$

Recall that

$1oz \approx 28g$

This means:

$1oz \approx 700\ billion\ bacteria$
