Question

How can you write 200.000 using a whole number and a power

Answer 1

Answer:

2 x 10^5

200,000 / 10 = 20,000

20,000 / 10 = 2,000

2,000 / 10 = 200

200 / 10 = 20

20 / 10 = 2

I divided 200,000 by 10 five times to get a number less than 10.

So, 5 is going to be the exponent.

Answer 2

Question Explanation:

In other words you can write 200,00 using a whole number and a power 10 using scientific notation!

In scientific notation you want a number less than 10 multiplied by 10 to the power of a number.

Solution:

200,000 / 10 = 20,000

20,000 / 10 = 2,000

2,000 / 10 = 200

200 / 10 = 20

20 / 10 = 2

I divided 200,000 by 10 five times to get a number less than 10.

So, 5 is going to be the exponent.
