Nine hundred light bulbs are packaged and shipped to a retail store. Thirteen percent of the light bulbs arrive broken. Which equation can be used to find the number of light bulbs that were broken? StartFraction 13 times 9 Over 100 times 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 117 Over 900 EndFraction StartFraction 13 times 9 Over 900 times 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 117 Over 8100 EndFraction StartFraction 100 divided by 9 Over 900 divided by 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 11.1 Over 100 EndFraction StartFraction 900 divided by 9 Over 13 divided by 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 100 Over 1.4 EndFraction

the answer is 31.27mph

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
