PLEASE HELP ME- KEEP GETTING 1.44x10 to the 9 power! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
An average person in the United States throws away 4.5 × 10² grams of trash per day. In 2013, there were about 3.2×106 people in the U.S.

About how many grams of trash were thrown away in the United States in 2013?

Enter your answer in the box.

5.3 × 10 to the what power. (there is a box in place of the power)

Im confused because I keep getting 1.44 instead of 5.3, so im not sure if my exponent is going to be right!

So you multiply the first factors, which will get you 14.4 and you add the powers together which will get you 10^8. Since 14.4 is not acceptable, you move the decimal and add 1 to the power which will get you 1.44 x 10^9

hope that helps :)
