Answer 2

The Vega family has a 2 year phone contract that includes 1,000 minutes of talk time per month.

1000 minutes talk time for one month

we know , 2 years = 24 months

For 1 month = 1000 minutes

For 24 months = 24 * 1000= 24000 minutes

24000 can be written as
`24 * 10^3`

The total talk time the family gets to share during the 2 years is
`24 * 10^3`
