Question

A certain computer can perform 10^6 calculations per second. how many calculations can it perform in 10 seconds? write your final answer in exponential form.

Answer 1

To find the number of calculations the computer can perform in 10 seconds, we need to multiply the number of calculations it can perform in one second by 10.

10^6 calculations/second * 10 seconds = 10^6 * 10 = 10^7

So, the computer can perform 10^7 calculations in 10 seconds.
