Answer:
$182000000000
1.82 * 10^11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Number of engineers = 2.6 million
Average salary = $70,000
Collective income generated by group of engineers yearly :
This will be on average :
2,600,000 * 70,000 = $182000000000
In scientific notation :
$182000000000 = 182 * 1000000000
182 * 1000000000 = 182 * 10^9
182 = 1.82 * 100 = 1. 82 * 10^2
Hence,
$182000000000 = 1.82 * (10^2 * 10^9)
$182000000000 = 1.82 * 10^11
