A company produces 4.56*10^3 light bulbs each week. Written in scientific notation, which is the best estimate of how many light bulbs the company will make in 9.36*10^2 weeks?

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]4.27\times10^6[/tex]


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Bulbs produced  by company in 1 week =[tex]4.56\times10^3[/tex]

[tex]=4.56\times1000=4560[/tex]

Number of bulbs make in [tex]9.36\times10^2\ weeks[/tex] = [tex]4560\times9.36\times10^2[/tex]

[tex]\\=4560\times936\\=4268160\\=4.27\times10^6[/tex]

Thus the best estimate of light bulbs the company will make in [tex]9.36\times10^2[/tex] weeks is [tex]4.27\times10^6[/tex].

The number of light bulbs that the company will make in 9.36 × 10² weeks is; 4.27 × 10^(6) bulbs

Scientific Notation

We are given;

Number of bulbs produced per week = 4.56 × 10³

Now, we want to know how many bulbs will be produced in 9.36 × 10² weeks.

To some this, we will just multiply both values to get the estimate of the light bulbs produced in the given time frame.

Thus;

Number of light bulbs the company will make in 9.36 × 10² weeks is;

4.56 × 10³ × 9.36 × 10²

>> (4.56 × 9.36) × (10^(3 + 2))

>> 42.6816 × 10^(5)

>> 4.27 × 10^(6) bulbs
