Question

How many times is 5 x 10^6 larger than 5 x 10^4

Answer 1

100 times greater.

Explanation:

Answer 2

By 100 times.

Explanation:

Each time something is in Scientific Notation, to every power of 10 something is multiplied by, it grows by 10 times.

By knowing that, if both equations use the same starting number, you can minus the notation section from the larger value, to find the answer.

10^6 - 10^4 = 10^2 ---> 100 times.

Hope that helps, :)
