Aliyah wants to estimate the value of the quotient of 5.68 x 10- and 8.54 x 10 Which statement about the value is true?

The value will be greater than 1 because (-3)+(-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 (-3)-(-9) - 6. A number in scientific notation with a positive exponent is
greater than 1.
The value will be less than 1 because 5.88 - 8.54 is less than 1. The negative exponents will make it even smaller.
The number will be less than 1 because 5.68 x 10- is a very small number and division always makes the size of a
number smaller.
