Scientific notation has 1 number to the left of the decimal and is multiplied by 10 raised to the number of spaces the decimal is moved.
A) 5.9 x 10 ^ 9
B) 4 x 10 ^ -2
C) 1 km = 100,000 cm
4x 10^-2 x 100,000 = 4000 fireflies per km = 4 x 10 ^3 fireflies per km
5.9x 10^9 x 4x 10 ^3 = 2.4 X 10^13
For 4. (Apples to balloons) it is really simple. All you have to do is count the amount of balloons and apples and turn into a ratio, which is a basically a fraction. The answer for that would be 4:2
For the other 4, im not sure what the answer is as i cant really see it that well.
3 and 3 are pretty easy too. All you need to do is find a common factor. For the first number 3, 6 and 8 can both be divided by 2. The will turn it in 3/4, which is as simple as the number can get. The next one can also be divided by 2, which will turn it into 5/7. Once again, this is as simple as it can get.
