Answer :

GPD : 17.555 trillion dollars

Population : 320 million people

1 Trillion has 12 zeroes

1 Million has 6 zeroes

To Express in scientific notation move the decimal point to the left, and multiply it by 10 ^ (number of places)

17.56 trillion = 1.76 x 10^13

320,000,000 = 3.2 x10^8

Divide:

1.76 x 10^13 / 3.2 x10^8 = 5.5 x 10^4
