Question

The average depth of the Artic Ocean is 3.953 x 10^5 feet while the average depth of the Atlantic Ocean is 1.2851 x 10^4 feet. Approximately how many times more deep is the Atlantic Ocean that the Artic Ocean?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence the artic depth is approximately 31 times deeper than atlantic

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following;

Average depth of the Artic Ocean = 3.953 x 10^5 feet

Average depth of the Atlantic Ocean = 1.2851 x 10^4 feet.

Taking the ratio of both depth;

Ratio = Depth of Artic/Depth of Atlantic

Ratio =  3.953 x 10^5/1.2851 x 10^4

Ratio =  3.076 * 10^1

Ratio = 30.76

Depth of artic/depth of atlantic = 30.76

Depth of artic = 30.76 * depth of atlantic

Hence the artic depth is approximately 31 times deeper than atlantic
