You can do cross multiplication:  5----40
                                                    8-----x
                                            
                                               8 x 40 = 320
                                               
                                                      x  =  320 / 5
                                                      x = 64

So 64 is your answer.

8 pounds of pears would cost 64.00 because 40/5=8.00-price per pear so 8 pounds x8= 64.00

The distance from the Earth to Saturn averages 886 million (886,000,000) miles. Write this number in scientific notation.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

8.86 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation means that you represent the standard form of a number like this:

number less than ten x 10 to the ___ power

In standard form, the decimal point is at the end of 886,000,000.

You have to move the decimal point to the left until it creates a number less than 10, but greater than 1:

8.86,000,000

You count how many decimal places you moved it. In this case, it is 8.

So your answer becomes 8.86 x 10^8
