The maximum number of pages the report can have, using scientific notation, is of:
2 x 10^6.
<h3>What is scientific notation?</h3>A number in scientific notation is written as follows:
With the base symbolized , meaning that it can assume values from 1 to 10, with an open interval at 10 meaning that for 10 the number is written as 10 = 1 x 10¹, meaning that the base is 1.
For this problem, the maximum number of pages that the report can have is given by the following division:
Maximum number of pages = Total capacity/Size of page.
These variables, from the text, are given as follows:
- Total capacity: 4 x 10^6 KB.
- Size of a page: 2 KB / page.
Hence the number of pages is obtained as follows:
Maximum number of pages = 4 x 10^6 KB / (2 KB/ page) = 2 x 10^6 pages.
When two numbers are divided in scientific notation, the bases are divided(4/2 = 2), while the exponents are subtracted (6 - 0 = 6).
