Answer:

D. 8.053 x 10^4

Explanation:

Given :

7.17 x 10^4 and 8.17 10^5

The number in between the two Given numbers should be greater Than 7.17*10^4 but less than 8.17*10^5

A. 6.92 x 10^4 - this is less than 7.17 * 10^4 ; hence doesn't fit in

B. 7.2 x10^9 - this is greater than both values, hence, doesn't fit in

C. 7.57 x 10^3 - this is less than 7.17*10^4 ; hence does not fit in

D. 8.053 x 10^4 - this fits in as it is greater than 7.17*10^4 and less than 8.17*10^5 ; hence, it is the correct answer.
