To find the number of square miles in each garden, we need to divide the total area of the field (3.9 mi^2) by the number of gardens (1.3*10^3).
3.9 mi^2 ÷ 1.3*10^3
To perform the division in scientific notation, we divide the numbers and subtract the exponents:
(3.9 ÷ 1.3) * 10^(2-3)
= 3 * 10^(-1)
= 3 * 0.1
= 0.3
Therefore, each garden will have an area of 0.3 square miles. In scientific notation, this is written as 3 * 10^(-1) mi^2.
A field of 3.9 mi^2 is being subdivided into 1.3*10^3 family gardens, How many square miles will there be in each garden? write the answer in scientific notation.

Apologies for the mistake.
To find the number of square miles in each garden, we need to divide the total area of the field (3.9 mi^2) by the number of gardens (1.3*10^3).
3.9 mi^2 ÷ (1.3*10^3)
To divide in standard notation, we divide the numbers:
3.9 ÷ 1.3 = 3
To divide the exponents, we subtract:
10^3 ÷ 10^3 = 1
So, the result is 3 mi^2. In scientific notation, this can be written as 3 * 10^0 mi^2.

Apologies for the confusion.
To find the number of square miles in each garden, we need to divide the total area of the field (3.9 mi^2) by the number of gardens (1.3*10^3).
3.9 mi^2 ÷ (1.3*10^3)
To divide in scientific notation, we divide the numbers and subtract the exponents:
(3.9 ÷ 1.3) * 10^(0-3)
= 3 * 10^(-3)
= 3 * 0.001
= 0.003
Therefore, each garden will have an area of 0.003 square miles. In scientific notation, this is written as 3 * 10^(-3) mi^2.
