Question

Sally averaged that she spent about 6.8×10^4 seconds training for her weight lifting competition in the month of May. Write this time in standard notation.

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 68000 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The average time Sally spent for training for her weight lifting competition in the month of May is $6.8\times 10^4\ s$.

We need to write this time in standard notation.

The power of 10 is 4. 10⁴ can be written as 10000.

$6.8\times 10^4=\dfrac{68}{10}\times 10000\\\\=68000$

So, the standard time is equal to 68000 s.
