Question

PELASE HELP ME QUICK?!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

The error is the number of zeroes is used as the exponent instead of the number of places the decimal is moved

Explanation:

10,000,000 - 7,680,000

2,320,000

2.32 x 10⁶

The album must sell 2.32 x 10⁶ more copies to receive the award.

Answer 2

The correct answer is
`2.32*10^6`. The exponent
`10^4` is wrong since the decimal place was moved six from the right. Additionally, the exponent number isn't dependent on the amount of zeros, but the amount of times the decimal place was moved.

Explanation:

Each place you move the decimal, you have to add or subtract one to the exponent.

If you move the decimal place towards the left, you add one.

If you move the decimal place toward the right, you subtract one.

The exponent number isn't dependent on the amount of zeros, but the amount of times you moved the decimal place. To get from 2,320,000 you must move the decimal place 6 times to the left to get 2.32. Hopes this helps!
