Answer:

C.
2* 10^7 is 5 times larger than
4* 10^6

Explanation:

We want to compare
4* 10^6 and
2* 10^7 .

In order to determine how many times

2* 10^7

is larger than

4* 10^6 ,

we need to divide
2* 10^7 by
4* 10^6 to obtain;

(2* 10^7)/(4* 10^6) =(10)/(2) =5

Therefore we can see that;

2* 10^7 is 5 times larger than
4* 10^6

The correct answer is C.
