Question

A rectangular park has an area of 1.36×108 ft2 . The length of the park is 1.6×104 ft. Divide the area by the length to find the width of the park.(1 point)

To find the width of the park, we need to divide the area of the park by its length.

Area = 1.36 × 10^8 ft^2
Length = 1.6 × 10^4 ft

Width = Area / Length
Width = (1.36 × 10^8 ft^2) / (1.6 × 10^4 ft)

To divide numbers in scientific notation, we subtract the exponents:

Width = 1.36 × 10^(8-4) ft
Width = 1.36 × 10^4 ft

Therefore, the width of the park is 1.36 × 10^4 ft.
