Step-by-step explanation:

To check which one is the greatest number first we have to check which power of 10 is greater. From the options we have the greatest power of 10 with this two options:

• 5.2 x 10⁴

,

• 6.1 x 10⁴

Now, to see which number is greater we have to check the number: 6.1 is greater than 5.2

Answer:

The greatest number is 6.1 x 10⁴
