Question

Determine the values of m

and n
when the following average distance from the Sun to the Earth is written in scientific notation: 150,000,000,000 m
.
Enter m
and n
, separated by commas.

Answer 1

To write 150,000,000,000 meters in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point 11 places to the left to get a number between 1 and 10. This gives us:

1.5 × 10^11 meters

Therefore, m is 1.5 and n is 11.

The answer is: 1.5,11
