Question

read the website excerpt and then answer the question. you may think of hunger as a problem that exists elsewhere, but nearly fifty million people in the united states are affected by food insecurity. thats almost fifty million people who sometimes have to make trade - offs between having enough to eat and meeting other basic needs. although many dont realize it, hunger affects urban, suburban, and rural communities. joining together, we can take steps to end hunger—not just worldwide, but right next door. who is the primary audience? americans in rural communities financially secure americans international aid workers people interested in volunteering at a soup kitchen

Explanation:

The text mentions "people in the United States" and emphasizes that hunger affects urban, suburban, and rural communities. It also calls for collective action to end hunger "right next door," which implies a local, American - based audience. Financially secure Americans are likely the target as they may not realize the extent of food insecurity (as stated "many don't realize it") and are in a position to take steps (joining together) to address the issue. Rural Americans are only part of the affected group. International aid workers are not relevant as the focus is on the US. People interested in soup kitchens are too narrow; the call is broader ("take steps to end hunger - not just worldwide, but right next door").

Answer:

financially secure Americans
