times greater than 5 × 102
.
To find out how many times greater one number is than another, we divide the larger number by the smaller number.
In this case, we divide 5 × 106 by 5 × 102:
(5 × 106) / (5 × 102) = (5/5) × (106/102) = 1 × (1000/100) = 1000/100 = 10
Therefore, 5 × 106 is 10 times greater than 5 × 102.
