Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

This question requires us to convert numbers from standard form to scientific form. This can easily be done using a calculator or just writing the number down then put a decimal point after the first digit and count the rest which would be raised to the power of that number.

Budget = 69.1 billion

Converting this to scientific form = 6.91×10¹⁰

Population = 11.67 million

Converting this to scientific form = 1.167×10⁷

Budget per capita refers to budget allocated to each individual in the population.

Budget per capita is used to compare economic indices or indicators of various countries with different population sizes.

Budget per capita = budget / total population

Budget per capita = 6.91×10¹⁰ / 1.169×⁷

Budget per capita = 5911.03

What this implies is that for each individual living in the state of Ohio, the amount budgeted for that particular period (mostly in a given year) is 5911.03
