20 points can someone please help me im struggling with this question! Charlotte's annual salary is 29,354 dollars. She is hoping to win the World Lottery which has a grand prize of 6,156,782,221 dollars. Approximately how many times as large is the World Lottery's grand prize as Charlotte's annual salary?

So to solve this problem just divide the lottery amount but Charlotte's salary.

Something like this:
6,156,782,221/29,354 = x
x = 209742.5
So the lottery is about 209742.5 times larger than her salary
