I apologize for the mistake. Let's try to solve it correctly.
To find the number of square feet, we need to divide the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot.
Number of square feet = (Number of bricks) / (Bricks per square foot)
In this case, the number of bricks is given as 2.967×10^5 and the bricks per square foot is given as 6.9.
Number of square feet = (2.967×10^5) / 6.9
Simplifying the expression, we get:
Number of square feet = 4.3115942029×10^4
Therefore, the pavilion is approximately 4.3×10^4 square feet.
thanks
You're welcome! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
To find the number of square feet the pavilion is, we need to divide the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot.
Let's start by dividing the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot:
2.967×10^5 bricks / 6.9 bricks per square foot
To divide these values in scientific notation, we subtract the exponents:
2.967 / 6.9 = 0.429
10^5 / 10^0 = 10^5
So, the pavilion is equal to 0.429 times 10^5 square feet.
Therefore, the answer in scientific notation is:
0.43×10^5
To find the number of square feet in the pavilion, we need to divide the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot.
Given that there are 2.967×10^5 bricks in the pavilion and 6.9 bricks per square foot, we can calculate the number of square feet using the following formula:
Number of square feet = Total number of bricks / Number of bricks per square foot
Plugging in the values, we get:
Number of square feet = (2.967×10^5) / 6.9
To divide two numbers in scientific notation, we subtract the exponents and divide the coefficients.
(2.967×10^5) / 6.9 = 2.967×10^5 / (6.9×10^0) = (2.967 / 6.9) × 10^(5-0) = 0.4304 × 10^5
In scientific notation, this can be written as 4.304×10^4, which corresponds to option:
4.3×10^4
To find the number of square feet, we need to divide the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot.
Dividing 2.967×10^5 bricks by 6.9 bricks per square foot, we get:
(2.967×10^5) / 6.9
To simplify this expression, we can divide both numbers by 10^5:
(2.967 / 10^5) / (6.9 / 10^5)
Which becomes:
2.967 / 6.9 × 10^5 / 10^5
Simplifying further:
0.4304347826 × 10^0
Since any non-zero number multiplied by 10^0 is equal to itself, we get:
0.4304347826
Therefore, the pavilion is approximately 0.43 square feet.
Converting this to scientific notation, we write it as:
0.43 × 10^0
