Question

the table represents the metric volume measure of a liter. Each amount is represented by ots power of 10. Complete the work to determine how many times larger a megaliter is than a hectolitter (see photo for further details)

Answer 1

A megaliter is 10000 times larger then a hectoliter.

Answer 2

Mega liter is
`10^(4)` times larger than a hectolitre.

Explanation:

Given the table which represents the metric volume measure of a liter. Each amount is represented by power of 10.

We have to find that how many times a mega liter is larger than a hectolitre.

Given, Mega liter =
`10^(6)`

hectolitre =
`10^(2)`

Step 1:
`(Megaliter)/(Hectolitre)=(10^(6))/(10^(2))`

Step 2:
`(10* 10* 10* 10 * 10 * 10)/(10 * 10)=10* 10* 10* 10=10^(4)`

Step 3:
`(Mega liter)/(Hectolitre)=10^(4)`

Step 4:
`Megaliter=10^(4)* Hectolitre`

Hence, Mega liter is
`10^(4)` times larger than a hectolitre.
