An ant has a length of approximately 7 x 10^-3 meters and an anaconda has a length of approximately 6 x 10^0meters. About how many times longer is the Anaconda as compared to the ant?

It would be 5.993 because with negative exponents you move to the left which would make it .007. And anything to the power of 0 equals 1. So it would be six because 6•1=6. So 6-.007=5.993
