- The passage states that the US produces enough food to feed 1.2 billion people, but only has a population of 320 million.
- This means there is a surplus of food production relative to the domestic population.
- The question asks how many more people the US could feed beyond its own population.
- To find this, subtract the US population from the total number of people the food can feed: 1,200,000,000 - 320,000,000 = 880,000,000.
- Therefore, the US could feed 880 million more people with its current food production.
