Answer 1

Question: 5x10^6 is how many times greater than 5x10^4
Answer:

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.

5x10^6= 5000000

5x10^4= 50000

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

Hope that helps, :)
