Answer:

[tex]1.86*10^{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to multiply the 1950 population by the number given (3*10^2)

So, we have [tex](6.2*10^7)*(3*10^2)[/tex]

we will multiply the constants in front and add the exponents of 10 together and write:

[tex](6.2*10^7)*(3*10^2)\\=(6.2*3)*10^{7+2}\\=18.6*10^9[/tex]

This in standard form is 1.86 * 10 ^ 10
