To write the budget for Ohio in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point to have only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point.
Given that the budget for Ohio is 69.1 billion, we can represent this as 6.91 x 10^10 in scientific notation.
Similarly, to write the population of Ohio in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point to have only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point.
Given that the population of Ohio is 11.7 million, we can represent this as 1.17 x 10^7 in scientific notation.
Next, to calculate the Budget Per Capita, we need to divide the budget by the population.
Budget Per Capita = 69.1 billion / 11.7 million
Budget Per Capita = 5,905.13
Rounded to a whole number, the Budget Per Capita is approximately 5,905.
The Budget Per Capita represents the average amount of money allocated to each resident of Ohio. In this case, it means that, on average, each resident is allocated around $5,905 from the budget for Ohio. This value can be used to assess the level of financial support or resources available to individuals within the state.
