Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

The question is

(7.7 x 10^3) x (8.0 x 10^6)

Basically, this can be rewritten as


(7.7 * 10^(3) ) * (8.0 * 10^(6) )................(1) where * sign represent multiplication

First, we calculate
10^(3) and
10^(6).

So
10^(3)=1000 and
10^(6)=1000000

then we put these values (1)


(7.7 * 10^(3) ) * (8.0 * 10^(6) )

=(7.7 * 1000) * (8.0* 1000000)

=77000 * 8000000

=61,600,000,000‬ answer

Six hundred and sixteen billion.
