Demographics are statistics describing aspects of the human population, such as age or income.

The next five questions deal with the population of the United States, which was about 309 million in 2010.

To keep it simple, use 309 (instead of 309,000,000) in your calculations. But don't forget that we're talking about millions, so be sure to add the word "million" at the end.

Just under 68% of Americans own their homes. Approximately, how many Americans own their homes? Round your answer to the nearest million. (For example, 1.4 million would round down to 1 million, 1.5 million would round up to 2 million.)
