In 1960, there were 52 million television sets in the US. If the US population that year was 180.7 million, find the number of televisions per capita in the US. Express your answer rounded correctly to four decimal places.

The number of televisions per capita is given by:

(number of television sets) / (Total population)

Number of television sets=52 million

Total population=180.7 million

Hence the number of televisions per capita is:

52/180.7

=0.288

Hence the answer is 0.288 televisions per capita
