4 0

Orders of Magnitude are in terms of scientific notation.

23,000 written in scientific notation is 2.3 x 10^4, it's magnitude is 4 ( the number 10 is raised to)

56 in scientific notation would be 5.6 x 10^1, its magnitude is 1.

4 - 1 = 3

2300 is 3 order of magnitudes larger.

The answer is 3.

Jill and Gary share £63 in the ratio 2:5<br> Work out how much each person gets.

irina [24]

Answer:

Jill gets €18 Gary gets €45.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you add the two numbers of the ratio together. 2+5=7. Then you divide the constant, 63, by the total of the ratio, 7. 63/7=9. Then you multiply each number of the ratio by the quotient. 2 x 9= 18. 5 x 9= 45.
