What is the probability that a randomly selected book is a nonfiction paperback? write the probability as a percent rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. *use the two-way table to identify the relative frequency of the given data.*                    fiction | nonfiction | total paperback |    5      |      23          | 28 hardback    |    11      |      30          | 41 total            |    16      |      53          | 69

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.

i use my brain for prombles like this maybe you could try it
