Question

The age of the Universe is estimated to be

13,700,000,000

This age can also be written as

1.37x107

1.37x108

1.37x109

1.37x106

1.37x1010

1.37x100

Answer 1

Option (5)

Step-by-step explanation:

A very small or very large number can be written in short form with help of scientific notation, in the scientific notation, a number is written as the product of a whole number between 0 to 9 and exponent of 10.

If we shift the decimal towards the left of the numbers then the nth power of 10 increases, and when we shift the decimal to the right of the number then the nth power of 10 decreases.

Thus, the age of the universe is given to be 13,700,000,000.

So we can write this huge number using scientific notation as 1.37×10^10.

hence, the correct answer is option (5).
