Question 1129038: China's population in thousands is: 1,277,208. Their total water footprint (in 10^9 cubic meters per year) is 1,368.
India's population in thousands is: 1,051,290. Their total water footprint (in 10^9 cubic meters per year) is 1,145.
I figured out that 10^9 cubic meters is: one billion cubic meters.

1368 billion m^3 water
1.277208 billion people
1071.09 m^3 per person for China
1145 billion
1.051290 billion people
1089.14 m^3 per person for India
Multiply 1089.14 by China's population to get 1391.06 billion m^3 water footprint.
