Explain why the exponent in 3.5x10^6 is 6,while there are only 5 zeros in 3,500,000

1 answer:

8 0

<span>The exponent is 6 while there are only 5 zeros because the exponent of a scientific notation does not depend on the number of zeros present. The exponent depends on the number of movements that the decimal point has moved. In this case, the decimal point is located on the right most zero of 3,500,000 it moved 6 numbers to the left to reach 3.5 so therefore 3.5 x 10^6</span>

In a cryptarithm, each letter is assigned its own unique digit. In the cryptarithm shown (where MATH is 3 times FUN), FUN is a 3

ANEK [815]

The 3 digit number that is FUN is; 678

<h3>What is the combination of the numbers?</h3>

We are told that MATH is 3 times the word "FUN".

We are also told that each letter is assigned a unique number and that no leading digit can be zero and that the digits must be consecutive.

Now, product of 789 by 3 gives;2367.

Each letter should have a unique letter and so that is not the correct sequence.

Let us try the product of 678 by;

678 * 3 = 2034

This fulfils the condition of the question because each letter has a unique digit, the lead digit is not zero and the numbers are consecutive numbers in increasing order.

Thus, the 3-digit number that is FUN is 678.
