Airplanes are sometimes used to fight fires. A certain airplane can deliver ×4104 liters of water in one trip. How much water can this airplane deliver in 38 trips?

Write your answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

To find the total amount of water that the airplane can deliver in 38 trips, we need to multiply the amount of water delivered in one trip by the number of trips:

×4104 liters/trip x 38 trips = 1.56192 x 10^5 liters

Therefore, the airplane can deliver 1.56192 x 10^5 liters of water in 38 trips.
