Aliyah wants to estimate the value of the quotient of 5.68 times 10 Superscript negative 3 and 8.54 times 10 Superscript negative 9. Which statement about the value is true? The value will be greater than 1 because (negative 3) divided by (negative 9) is a positive number. A number in scientific notation with a positive exponent has a value greater than 1. The value will be greater than 1 because (negative 3) minus (negative 9) = 6. A number in scientific notation with a positive exponent is greater than 1. The value will be less than 1 because 5.68 divided by 8.54 is less than 1. The negative exponents will make it even smaller. The number will be less than 1 because 5.68 times 10 Superscript negative 3 is a very small number and division always makes the size of a number smaller.
