Question

Which number is the largest? (4 points)

7.2 ⋅ 10−6, 3.09 ⋅ 103, 2.04 ⋅ 104, 5 ⋅ 103

Answer 1

welcome to QuestionCove!!

to begin,lets solve each one.

so we have 7.2*10-6

so first we do 10-6 which is 4. so what is 7.2*4?

Answer 2

the formatting was lost, but these quantities are actually in scientific notation

7.2 ⋅ 10^(−6), 3.09 ⋅ 10^3, 2.04 ⋅ 10^4, 5 ⋅ 10^3
in that case, because all the bases are positive, you can simply look for the highest positive exponent on the 10 part
