3*10^2
3*10^-1
3*10^-2
0.35*10^-1

Answer 1

3x10^2

Answer 2

it's 3×10^−2

Answer 3

To find the number of containers needed, we can divide the total amount of perfume by the amount in each container.

10.5 gallons / 3.5 gallons/container = 3 containers

Therefore, Solomon needs 3 containers to distribute 10.5 gallons of perfume.

To write this answer in scientific notation, we express it as:

3 * 10^0

Since any number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1, the expression simplifies to:

3 * 1 = 3

So the answer in scientific notation is 3.
