A city lunch program for seniors received a grant of 1.925×10^6 dollars. Divide that figure by the cost of $2.75 per lunch to find out how many senior lunches the grant can provide. Write the answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

To find out how many senior lunches the grant can provide, divide the grant amount of 1.925×10^6 dollars by the cost of $2.75 per lunch:

1.925×10^6 dollars / $2.75 per lunch

Calculating this division results in:

7.0 × 10^5 lunches

Therefore, the grant can provide 7.0 × 10^5 senior lunches.
