Suppose a farm has 1,200,000 square meters of cropland. a swarm of grasshoppers forms with 30 grashoppers per square meter. how many grasshoppers are in the swarm? show the number with an exponent and in standard form

We are given:

Area (A) = 1,200,000 m^2

Population density (P) = 30 grasshoppers / m^2

To solve the total grasshoppers in the swarm, simply multiply A and P, that is:

total = A * P

total = (1,200,000 m^2) * (30 grasshoppers / m^2)

total = 36,000,000 grasshoppers

In standard form this is:

3.6 x 10^7 grasshoppers

8 2/3 is the answer
