I WILL GIVE MEDAL!!! An average person in the United States throws away 4.5 × 10^–1 kg of trash per day. In 2013, there were about 3.2 × 10^6 people in the U.S. About how many kilograms of trash was thrown away in the United States in 2013? 5.3 × 10 ___ kg

OpenStudy (imstuck):

You have to multiply the number of people times the amount of trash one person throws away. That would be3.2 x 10^6 times 4.5 x 10^-1. Do you know how to do that?
