Free Rice for Africa

How much rice does it take to feed a person for a day? How many grains of rice in a gram?

The composition of UN World Food Program food basket varies from country to country and region to region, depending upon the eating habits of the people WFP feeds.

In countries where rice is a staple part of the diet, World Food Programme provides, on average about 400 grams of rice per person, per day (for families, including children and adults). That is intended for two meals that include other ingredients to ensure a minimum of 2,100 kilocalories per day.

There are about 48 grains of rice in a gram.

400 times 48 = 19200. :-\

My record on this:
1st time playing = level 14
2nd time = level 24
3rd time = level 44
4th time = level 54

Now, what’s wrong with the number 4 here???
Why do I have to get stuck on such a number?

maybe you are just a lucky guy… maybe you found a clover 4? (:WIN)

How are you guys doing on freerice?
