I believe 1 is 3.8, b/c 1.9*2 is 3.8, and the difference between exponents makes 3 zeros, so 2000.
The second one is 40, I confirmed this by doing .0001 to replicate 10 to the negative 4th power
By doing 9.5*.0001*40, I got the 0.038 from 1
5/20 students in Alessandro's class live in Oakdale, which can be simplified to 1/4. 1/4 in decimal form is 0.25. Now to convert it to a percentage, you just multiply that by 100. So 25% of students in Alessandro's class live in Oakdale.
That all cause u the length of the time
