Question 3

The distance from Mason's house to Kevin's house is about 5 x 10 to the power of 5 inches. The distance from Mason's house to Chloe's house is about 8 x 10 to the power of 7 inches
The distance from Mason's house to Chloe's house is how many times greater than the distance from Mason's to Kevin's house?

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

160

Explanation:

Your calculator can compute the ratio of distances for you.

`(8*10^7)/(5*10^5)=(8)/(5)*10^(7-5)=1.6*10^2=\boxed{160}`

Chloe's house is 160 times as far as Mason's house.
