Let's calculate how many senior lunches the grant can provide.

To do that, we'll divide the grant amount of 1.925×10^6 dollars by the cost of $2.75 per lunch.

1.925×10^6 dollars ÷ $2.75 per lunch

To divide these numbers in scientific notation, we can divide the coefficients (1.925 ÷ 2.75) and subtract the exponents (10^6 - 0).

The result is approximately 7.018×10^5 senior lunches that the grant can provide.

So, the grant can provide approximately 7.018×10^5 senior lunches.
