Marjolein Snippe May 19, 2022:
5 year's worth "worth" is not really part of "backgound radiation" here ("worth of radiation"); rather, the amount is "the value of 3-5 years" of background radiation, that is "the amount that is received in 3-5 years". The meaning is similar to "the equivalent of 3-5 years of background radiation".
