Answer:
100,000
Step-by-step explanation:
So, when they say how many times larger 3x10^6 is than 3x10^1, they need you to divide 3x10^6 by 3x10^1.
When doing division and multiplcation with exponents, you subtract and add.
So, we have [tex]\frac{3*10^6}{3*10^1}[/tex]
The 3, that doesnt have a exponent on top or bottom, cancels out:
So now we have [tex]\frac{10^6}{10^1}[/tex]
Finally, since we are dividing 10^6 by 10^1, we are actually subtracting the exponents:
So we have [tex]10^5[/tex]
When you distrubute the ^5, you get:
100,000
So this is how many times bigger 3* [tex]10^6[/tex] is than 3*[tex]10^1[/tex]
HOpe this helps! :D
