Farmers in one state produced 417,938,650 bushels of corn one year. If the production of corn decreases by ten million bushels, how many bushels of corn will be produced? A 417,938,650 bushels

B 417,938,640 bushels

C 417,928,650 bushels

D 407,938,650 bushels

D

Step-by-step explanation:

417,938,650-10,000,000=407,938,650

 D) 407,938,650 bushels

Explanation:

417,938,650 = 417 million, 938 thousand, 650

Focus on the "417 million" part only. Subtract 10 million from this, because of the key word "decrease". So we go from 417 to 417-10 = 407

Meaning we drop from 417 million to 407 million

The other parts remain the same

So "417 million, 938 thousand, 650" updates to "407 million, 938 thousand, 650"

Then we translate that somewhat wordy form into a pure number 407,938,650 which is choice D

In short, we just changed 417 to 407 and kept everything else the same.
