Answer:
3.2 x 10^5 goes in greater than 2.4 x 10^4
1.9 x 10^-1 goes in less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.2 x 10 goes in less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.4 x 10^3 goes in between 1.2 x 10^2 and 2.4 x 10^4
5.9 x 10^2 goes in between 1.2 x 10^2 and 2.4 x 10^4
6.1 x 10 goes in less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.5 x 10^4 goes in greater than 2.4 x 10^4
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find out what 2.4 x 10^4 and 1.2 x 10^2 is.
2.4 x 10^4 = 24000
1.2 x 10^2 = 120
3.2 x 10^5 is obviously greater than 2.4 x 10^4 because the exponent of ten in 3.2 x 10^5 is one more value than the exponent in 2.4 x 10^4. The decimal is also greater.
1.9 x 10^-1 = .19, which is less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.2 x 10 = 22, less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.4 x 10^3 = 2400, in between 1.2 x 10^2 and 2.4 x 10^4
5.9 x 10^2 = 590, in between 1.2 x 10^2 and 2.4 x 10^4
6.1 x 10 = 61, less than 1.2 x 10^2
2.5 x 10^4 we can solve without doing the math, 2.5 is greater than 2.4 meaning the product will be greater, to check I did the math 2.5 x 10^4 = 25000, greater than 2.4 x 10^4
P.S Next time right ^ before the exponents, so we know they are exponents
