Answer 1

State:                                                 Population:

Texas   =======>             2.5   *    10^7

=       2.5  *  10^7

=      2.5  *   (10  *  10 *  10  *  10 *  10  *  10  *  10 )

Answer      =====>   Texas  =====>     25,000,000   Population

Florida    =======>            1.9   *    10^7

=     1.9   *   10^7

=     1.9   *    (10 * 10 * 10 * 10 *10 * 10 * 10 )

Answer  ====>  Florida  =====>       19,000,000   Population

Idaho     =======>           1.6   *        10^6  

1.6  *   10^6

1.6  *    (10  *  10  *  10  *  10  *  10  *  10 )

Answer  ===>      Idaho    ======>   1600000  Population

Therefore, Your answer would be,  Letter Choice, (C),   IDAHO HAS THE SMALLEST POPULATION  ===>   1.6  *   10^6    ======>   1600000

Hope that helps!!!                                 : )
