A	100, 000
B	1, 000, 000, 000
C	10
D	10, 000

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -If you consider that each bolt of lightning contains more than 5 billion Joules of energy, then the average 1000-watt, two-slice toaster could be powered for 84, 000 minutes with just one strike. That’s just enough time to toast about 100, 000 slices of bread, bagels, English muffins-whatever you prefer.

Detailed explanation-2: -How much energy is in a lightning bolt? An average lightning bolt can release enough energy to operate a 100-watt light bulb for more than three months straight (about 250 kilowatt-hours of energy).
