To make the exponent rational, for square root use 1/2. To wit:
10^(1/2)
Answer:
50000 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these are given in scientific notation, we can convert them to have the same powers of 10. Converting 4*10^12 to something times 10^7, we can get 4*10^5*10^7. So we divide 400000 by 8 to see how many times larger it is than 8. So we get 50000 times as our answer.
15% of 40
Of = Multiplication
15% Multiply by 40
Set up a equation
15/100= x/140
Cross Multiply
15* 140= 100*x
2100= 100x
Divide both sides by 100x
2100/100x= 100x/100x
X= 21
