An elephant weighs about 1.3×10 to the power of 4 pounds a car weighs about 4×10 to the power 3 pounds an elephant weighs about how many times more than the car weighs write your answer in standard notation

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex]times

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of elephant  = 1.3 x 10⁴lb  = 13000lb

Weight of car  = 4 x 10³lb = 4000lb

Unknown:

  Number of times the elephant weigh more than the car = ?

Solution:

 The number of times = [tex]\frac{Weight of elephant}{Weight of car}[/tex]

      Number of times  = [tex]\frac{13000}{4000}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] times
