Waves physics question

Treat a firefly as an isotropic source of light. 4.55 m away from a firefly, you measure an intensity of 2.41×10-8 W/m2. What is the power output of this source? Convert your answer and enter it with units of uW (microwatts, where "micro-" = ×10−6). If this light were focused into a laser beam with a radius of 1.83 mm, what would be the intensity of light within the beam? Enter the units as W/m^2
