Question

Help me! Lots of points! Put these numbers in order from least to greatest:
`4.35 * 10^(20) \\4.84 * 10^(19) \\4.9 * 10^(19)`

Answer 1

4.84 × 10¹⁹

4.9 × 10¹⁹

4.35 × 10²⁰

Explanation:

4.35 × 10²⁰ = 43.5 × 10¹⁹

4.84 × 10¹⁹

4.9 × 10¹⁹

Order is:

4.84 × 10¹⁹

4.9 × 10¹⁹

4.35 × 10²⁰

Answer 2

Lets turn each number into standard form.

4.35 * 10^20 = 435,000,000,000,000,000,000

4.84 * 10^19 = 48,400,000,000,000,000,000

4.9 * 10^19 = 49,000,000,000,000,000,000

4.84 * 10^19 < 4.9 * 10^19 < 4.35 * 10^20

Therefore, the numbers from least to greatest is 4.84 * 10^19, 4.9 * 10^19, and 4.35 * 10^20

Best of Luck!
