    the answer is 1.453

    Step-by-step explanation:

    i am not sure about the answer but here are my steps. first he says in the 1990s there was a deforestation rate of about 0.48%per year. and 1 is the rate of land that is shrinking. this means that if Brazil had a forest of area x then

    x (0.48%) = 1 therefore x=2.083

    lets use that in this equation

    the area left (the final answer) 2.083 (0.48) ^35 = 1.453

    (i asked about the unit its measured with because if it is measured by thousands of squared meters or kilometers just big unit measured to be exact my answer would be correct)
