Scientific notation implies that all the zeros are taken away and replaced with a 10 raised to whatever appropriate power would be necessary to make the number in scientific notation equal to the original number.
In the number 780,000,000, we can see that there are 7 zeros, but the number before the zeros has two digits, so we need to tuck the decimal point in there, because the number has to be between 1 and 10 for math reasons.
7.8 ... but what do we raise it to? We know it has to be 10, but to what power? Well, we just count how many places to the left the decimal point has traveled. From the original number, the decimal point shifted 8 places to the left, so that is the number that we will raise the 10 to.
The final number looks like this:

Answer:
12π ft², B
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of circle: radius²π
The area of the entire circle would thus be 6²π, or 36π
Note that a circle has a total degree measure of 360°, and the shaded area is 120°. Thus, the area of the shaded region would be 120/360 of the circle's area, or 1/3.
1/3 * total area of the circle = area of the shaded region
1/3 * 36π = 12π
Thus, the answer is 12π ft², or B.
Step by step, meaning explaining the equation right and answer?
The area is 186.03. lw = 15.9(11.7) = 186.03
