Approximately how many times greater is 6×10^−5 than 5×10^−9 ? 120 1200 12,000 120,000

Answer 1

$\text {Number of times = } \dfrac{6 \times 10^{-5}}{5\times10^{-9}}$

$\text {Number of times = } 1.2 \times 10^{-5-(-9)}$

$\text {Number of times = } 1.2 \times 10^{4}$

$\text {Number of times = } 12000$
