Problem A

When you use the term larger, you mean that (if the power is positive) the bigger number is in the numerator. 4*10^15 > 8 * 10^9 So 8 * 10^9  is in the denominator

Solution

\dfrac{4*10^{15}}{8*10^9} =0.5*10^6 =0.5*10^1*10^5=5*10^5

Note:The tricky part is recognizing what to do with the 0.5 * 10^6. You can always break apart a power into it's parts. Since 6 = 5 + 1, the power can be broken down into 10^1*10^5. The 10^1 is used to get the 0.5 to a number that is a single digit.

Problem 2

I'm just going to give you the answer to this. Please use Problem A as a guide.

\dfrac{2*10^-5}{4*10^-12} = \dfrac{0.5*10^{-5}*10^{12}}{1} = 5*10^6
