Solomon needs to distribute 10.5 gallons of perfume among 3.5 * 10 ^ 2 containers. How many gallons of perfume will be in each container? Write the answer in scientific notation. (1 point)
O 3 * 10 ^ - 2
© 3 * 10 ^ 2
0.35 * 10 ^ - 1
O 3 * 10 ^ - 1
To find the amount of perfume in each container, we divide the total amount of perfume (10.5 gallons) by the number of containers (3.5 * 10^2).
10.5 gallons / (3.5 * 10^2) = 3 gallons
Therefore, the answer in scientific notation is 3 * 10^0 or just 3.
What
I apologize for the error in my previous response. Let's correct it.
To find the amount of perfume in each container, we divide the total amount of perfume (10.5 gallons) by the number of containers (3.5 * 10^2).
10.5 gallons / (3.5 * 10^2) = 0.03 gallons
Therefore, the answer in scientific notation is 3 * 10^(-2).
To find out how many gallons of perfume will be in each container, we need to divide the total amount of perfume (10.5 gallons) by the number of containers (3.5 * 10^2).
10.5 gallons / (3.5 * 10^2) containers
This can be simplified by dividing the numerator and the denominator separately:
10.5 / 3.5 = 3
10^2 / 10^2 = 1
Therefore, the answer is 3 * 10^1 or simply 30 in scientific notation.
To find the number of gallons of perfume in each container, you need to divide the total gallons of perfume by the number of containers.
Given that there are 10.5 gallons of perfume and 3.5 * 10^2 containers, you can perform the division as follows:
10.5 gallons ÷ (3.5 * 10^2 containers)
To divide by 3.5 * 10^2, you need to divide 10.5 by 3.5 and subtract the exponent of 10.
10.5 ÷ 3.5 = 3
Since the exponents have the same base (10), you can subtract the exponents to get the final result.
10^0 (which is 1) ÷ 10^2 = 10^(0 - 2) = 10^-2
Therefore, the answer is 3 * 10^-2 in scientific notation.
