Question

3 Write the missing power of 10 in each equation. Write your answers in the blanks. 0.06 X ____= 6____X 0.3 =

Answer 1

We are given the following relationship:

`0.06*10^x=6`

To find the exponent we need to have into account that to transform 0.06 into 6 we need to move the decimal point 2 units to the right, therefore, the exponents must be 2, that is:

`0.06*10^2=6`

Now we are given the following:

`0.06*10^3`

In this case, we have to move the decimal point 3 spaces to the right, like this:

`0.06*10^3=60`
