Step-by-step explanation:
We need to convert 1.5 × 10⁸ from scientific notation to standard form.
The scientific notation is 1.5 × 10⁸
Out of the given options, we need to choose the correct one.
10⁸ means 100000000
⇒ [tex]1.5\times 10^8=1.5\times 100000000[/tex]
or
[tex]1.5\times 100000000=\dfrac{15}{10}\times 100000000[/tex]
One of the zero from denominator and numerator will cancel down.
[tex]\dfrac{15}{10}\times 100000000=15\times 10000000\\\\=150000000[/tex]
So, the correct option is b.
