Question

a computer program is in Shannon's computer carries out a single mathematical operation in 1.5 * 10 over 6 seconds how much time would the program take to complete 2.5 * 10/3 mathematical operations

Answer 1

Question:

Solution:

This computer program carries out a single mathematical operation in

`1.5x10^(-6)\text{ seconds}`

then, to complete 2.5 x 10^3 mathematical operations the program will take a time of:

`(1.5x10^(-6))(2.5x10^3)=3.75x10^(-3)`

thus, the correct answer is:

`3.75x10^(-3)`
