27.6034 gallons...
296,483,000 (Americans) x 77.6 (avg lifepan) x 3 (pounds of PB each per Skippy) / 7 (lbs per gal) = American life consumption of PB in gallons.
OR 296,483,000 x 77.6 x 3 / 7 = 9,860,177,486 (almost 10 billion)
Now 83% = 83/100 = X / 9,860,177,486
So if you cross multiple you get
9,860,177,486 x 83 = 100x
OR 818,394,731,300 = 100x
Divide each side by 100 for value of x
8,183,947,313 = x
Americans eat approximately 8 billion gallons of peanut butter in an average lifetime.
This is the total life time consumption of all Americans. If ask for an average American, then just divide by 296,483,000 = 27.6034 gallons.
For an average American, the total life time consumption of peanut butter is = 0.83 x(3/7) x 77.6 =
27.6034 gallons
Americans eat about 3 pounds of peanut butter per person each year, totaling about
500 million pounds... enough to cover the floor of the Grand Canyon.

in accordance to a survey carried out via the Texas Peanut Butter manufacturers' Aasociation individuals consume 4 hundreds of thousands pounds of peanut butter each 12 months. this may be enought to plaster the Grand Canyon with. Divide it via the inhabitants of united states of america and you may get the intake in step with American. so a ways as Asia is worried it believes greater in eating butter derived from milk. Peanut butter intake is constrained to western touists or wesernised Asians wish this plenty 'muscafication'(buttering) is sufficient to get the points1
