Wrong, do you mind trying again?

Still appears to be wrong, the answer is not 5 x 10^2
Answered by ollie
No, sorry. The answer is 5x10^5

To find out how many feathers would be needed, we need to divide the total weight (4.1 x 10^3 g) by the weight of each feather (0.0082 g).

Number of feathers = (4.1 x 10^3 g) / (0.0082 g)

Now, divide the numerical values:
Number of feathers = 500

Finally, express the answer in scientific notation:
Number of feathers = 5 x 10^2.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's try solving it again.
