millli, for your information, scientific notation can be written as
1.45x10^9, or 1.45x10E9.
So the above choices are really:
A. 1.45 × 10^9 minutes a year
B. 14.5 × 10^8 minutes a year
C. 1.825 × 10^3 minutes a year
D. 0.52925 × 10^10 minutes a year
E. 5.2925 × 10^11 minutes a year
The total number of minutes will therefore be
5 min/person/day * 365 days/year *290x10^6 people
I'll let you do the calculator exercise.
