Step-by-step explanation:

As I understand the question you have the following expressions given in scientific notation:

Expression A:


9*10^2

Expression B:


3*10^(-2)

So we need to compare both expression in order to know how much times is expression A bigger than B. So:


(9* 10^2)/(3* 10^(-2))=(9)/(3)*10^(2-(-2))=3* 10^4=30,000 \\ \\ \\ *(a^n)/(b^m)=a^(n-m)

In conclusion
9*10^2 is
30,000 times as much as
3*10^(-2)
