Final answer:
The quotient of 1.05x10 to the third power and 1x10 to the third power is 1.05, as the powers of 10 cancel each other out when divided.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is option 1.05. To evaluate the quotient of 1.05x103 and 1x103, you divide the two expressions. Since the powers of 10 are the same, you simply divide the numerical coefficients.
The powers of 10 cancel each other out because when you divide powers of the same base, you subtract the exponents (103 divided by 103 equals 100, which is 1). Thus, the quotient is 1.05 / 1, which simplifies to 1.05.
To evaluate the quotient of 1.05x103 and 1x103, we divide the numbers without their powers of 10. So, 1.05 divided by 1 equals 1.05.
The powers of 10 cancel each other out in division, so the quotient remains the same with no power of 10. Therefore, the final answer is 1.05.
