Question

The magazine People publishes one issue each week during the year. What is the Order of Magnitude for the number of issues of People published each year

Answer 1

There are 52 weeks in one year so 52 issues per year

Answer 2

We have been given that the magazine People publishes one issue each week during the year.

Let us first calculate the number of issues published by the magazine People during entire year.

We know that there are 52 weeks in a year. Hence, the magazine People must publish 52 issues (one each week) for a entire year.

We know that the number 52 can be written as $0.52\times 10^{2}$. Hence, the order of magnitude of 52 (number of issues of People published each year) is 2.

Hence, the final answer is 2.
