Facts and formulas used
- 1 tree produces 8,333.33 US letter 'copier' paper (based on [1]).
- To get how many paper of type X a tree can produce, we multiply 8,333.33 by (area of X / area of Letter).
- To get how many trees amount of paper X consumes, we compute X divided by the number of papers produced by one tree (previous item).
