Okay. 10^12 is 1 trillion. 1 trillion * 7 is 7 trillion. 14 trillion / 7 trillion is 2. The national debt in 2010 is two times larger than in 2003. So that basically means that the national debt doubled from 2003 to 2010.

Answer:  About 2 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In 2010, the national debt of the United States was about 14 trillion dollars.

We know that 1 trillion =1,000,000,000,000= 10^{12}

then, In 2010, the national debt of the United States was about 14\times10^{12}

dollars.

In 2003 it was about 7\times10^{12} dollars.

Now, the number of times the national debt was larger in 2010 than 2003 :-

\dfrac{ 14\times10^{12}}{7\times10^{12}}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{7}\times10^{12-12}\\\\=2\times10^0=2

Hence, national debt was about 2 times larger in 2010 than 2003 .

It takes Ty 4 hours 30 minutes to read his favorite book, reading at a constant rate of 100 pages
AysviL [449]

Answer:

540 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

100 pages = 50 mins

??? pages = 270 mins (converted 4hrs 30 mins to minutes)

Now you could cross multiply to find what the number of pages are:

100 pages x 270  mins = 50 mins x ??? pages

27000 = 50 mins x ??? pages

27000/50 = ??? pages

540 = ??? pages

So there are 540 pages in his favourite book.
