Question

Which is largest 3.3 times 10^5 or 3.1 times 10^5

Answer 1

3.3 x 10^5 = 50.3 and 3.1 x 10^5 = 50.1

Answer 2

Answer: 3.3 times 10^5 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation: 10^5= 10*10*10*10*10=100,000.

so 100,000 multiplied by 3.3 = 330,000

or 3.1 multiplied by 100,000 = 310,000 so it's obvious that 330,000 is bigger.
