Answer 1

2.6 × 10-2, 6.2 × 10-1, 3.5 × 102, 1.5 × 104 is the answer took the test got a 100

Answer 2

Answer:- C is the right option

Explanation:-

Rewrite the given numbers in usual form

`1.5*10^4=1.5*10000=15000`

`2.6*10^(-2)=2.6*(1)/(100)=0.026`

`3.5*10^2=3.5*100=350`

`6.2*10^(-1)=6.2*(1)/(10)=0.62`

The numbers in order from least to greatest

`\rightarrow0.026,0.62,350,15000`

OR

`2.6*10^(-2),6.2*10^(-1),3.5*10^2,1.5*10^4`

∴ C is the right option.
