Answer 1

Hi. So do you know where to start? @Girlie310

Answer 2

No

Answer 3

Okay so we have to put that long number into a single digit x 10 to the power of x

Answer 4

So the equation would be n x 10^x

Answer 5

Now we can see that the only numbers we have other than 0 is 16 and 7

Answer 6

so n would be 16.7

Answer 7

and we have 14 0's

Answer 8

and 14 is x

Answer 9

So now using that information what do you think the answer is?

Answer 10

Could you put the equation together?

Answer 11

Yeah so since there are 14 0s that x would be 13.

Answer 12

The n would be 16.7

Answer 13

So putting the equation together... it would be 16.7 x 10^13

Answer 14

Am I right @Michele_Laino ?

Answer 15

hint:
starting from the rightmost zero, you have to shift the decimal point of 16 places and you will get:
\[\Large 1.67 \cdot {10^{16}}\]
