Question

At a certain zoo, the average mass of one cow is measured to be 410 kilograms. Usescientific notation to express the mass of 150 cows.

Answer 1

Step 1:

Given data

The average mass of a cow = 410 kg

Step 2:

To find the mass of 150 cows, you will multiply 150 cows by 410 kg.

Therefore

`\begin{gathered} \text{Total mass of 150 cows = 150 }*\text{ 410 } \\ \text{ = 61500 kg} \end{gathered}`

Final answer

Write the total weight in scientific notation

`=\text{ 6.15 }*10^4\text{ kg}`
