China and India are the most populous countries in the world. China’s population is approximately 1.45×10^9 , while India’s population is approximately 1,400,000,000. How many more people live in China than in India?(1 point)

1 answer

To find out how many more people live in China than in India, we need to compare the two population figures.

China’s population is approximately \( 1.45 \times 10^9 \), which is equivalent to \( 1,450,000,000 \).

India’s population is approximately \( 1,400,000,000 \).

Now, we subtract India's population from China's population:

\[ 1,450,000,000 - 1,400,000,000 = 50,000,000 \]

So, approximately 50 million more people live in China than in India.
