thats it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, like I said before, when a number is multiplied by 10^(negative number), it's a decimal. So we know that 4.5x10^-3 is out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When 10's degree is positive, the higher the degree, the larger the number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so b correct ?

OpenStudy (bibby):

you're not even reading what he's saying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No no. b is out, because it's a decimal and very small. We want to find the largest number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

bro im checking my work calm down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but didnt you say it has to be negative ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, I said that if it were negative, then it would be a decimal. Decimals are small, and we're looking for the largest number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so d ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah, no. Why don't you look at this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From this, you can see that anything multiplied by 10^4 would be much larger than something multiplied by 10^3, even if the number being multiplied is smaller.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that means its a then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup, exactly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooooooooooo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get it now :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):
