Question

Express 10^−7 goats in nanogoats

Answer 1

0.000000001 (1 nano)
0.000001000 (10^-7)

Therefore, 10^-7 goats would be 1000 nano goats.

Answer 2

you're one zero extra @Shane_B ....

Answer 3

1 goat = 1, 000, 000, 000

so

10^-7 would be 1,000,000,000 x 10^-7

or simply erase 7 zeroes...

\[\implies 1, 00\cancel 0, \cancel 0 \cancel 0 \cancel 0, \cancel 0 \cancel 0 \cancel 0\]

Answer 4

btw @Shane_B ...you do know \[1 \times 10^{-7} = 10^{-7}\]right? identity property of multiplication....

Answer 5

Yea...I totally goofed that. However....I still don't see the mistake in my original post:

10^-7 = 0.000001000
10^-9 = 0.000000001

Answer 6

OH WAIT...Yes, you're right :P

Answer 7

0.000001000 <---10^-6

Answer 8

I see it now...I'm retarded :P

Answer 9

haha lol

Answer 10

a wise user once told me "get back to the math section"

lol :p

Answer 11

hah...a very wise one :)

Answer 12

If you were only in the math section right now...you would not have seen this mistake and all would still be right in my world :P

Answer 13

\[x=10^{−7} [\text{goats}]\]\[x\times10^{-2}=10^{-7} [\text{goats}]\times10^{-2}\]\[x\times10^{-2}=10^{-9}[\text{goats}]\]\[x\times10^{-2}=[\text{nanogoats}]\]\[x=10^2[\text{nanogoats}]\]\[x=100[\text{nanogoats}]\]
