The population of the United States is approximately 3x10^6 people. The population of Germany is approximately 8x10^7. Which statement about the populations of these countries is true ?
what are the statements?
I'm going to guess you have to make a ratio
my guess- which one is more or less
A) The population of Germany is almost 3 times the population of the U.S B) The population of Germany is almost 4 times the population of the U.S C) The population of the U.S is almost 3 times the population of of Germany D) The population of the U.S is almost 4 times the population of Germany
aww
lolol
check your question that must be population of germany= \(8 \times 10^{\color{red}6}\)
Yeah 10^7 is way too much
for the question
lol yeah
No it's 8x10^7
3*10^7?
I think it's 3*10^7 in any case you can set a ratio up haha
well https://www.google.co.in/search?client=opera&q=population+of+germany&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 https://www.google.co.in/search?client=opera&q=population+of+germany&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8#q=population+of+united+states
check your options
\[\frac{ 8 \times 10 ^7 }{3 \times 10^7 } = k\] where k will give you how much more people Germany will have than the US
Either they're both to the power of 6 or 7 because otherwise your options are wrong
Yeah, I guess my options are wrong
\(\Huge\ddot\smile\)
Haha and yeah, the links qwerty gave are the real populations
yeah lol
Oh you know what...
They have the populations backwards, I think they meant \[3 \times 10^7\] for US and \[8 \times 10^ 6\] for Germany, that's pretty close to real populations and then if you do \[\frac{ 3 \times 10^7 }{ 8 \times 10^6 } = k \] you will get one of your options
yeah this seems correct cuz germany's population has always been less than US's
I got 0.375
Try again
2.6 ?
Why I did it for you, plug in those numbers
\(\huge \frac{ 3 \times 10^7 }{ 8 \times 10^6 } = k\)
okay so I did \[3\div8 \] and I got 0.375
Put the powers..
I totally forgot my bad
3.7
Yes, 3.75 approximately 4
oh yeah
What does that imply?
so the answer is D
Yes
:)
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!11
