To compare the values, we need to divide 4 × 10^4 by 2 × 10^2:
(4 × 10^4) / (2 × 10^2) = (4/2) × (10^4 / 10^2) = 2 × 10^(4-2) = 2 × 10^2
Therefore, 4 × 10^4 is 200 times larger than 2 × 10^2.
(4 × 10^4) / (2 × 10^2) = (4/2) × (10^4 / 10^2) = 2 × 10^(4-2) = 2 × 10^2
Therefore, 4 × 10^4 is 200 times larger than 2 × 10^2.

To determine how many times less 102 is than 106, we need to divide 106 by 102:
(106) / (102) = 1.04
Therefore, 102 is 10^(-4) (0.0001) times less than 106.
(106) / (102) = 1.04
Therefore, 102 is 10^(-4) (0.0001) times less than 106.

To express the given number in the required form, we can use scientific notation.
0.000000003 can be written as 3 × 10^(-9).
Therefore, it takes light less than 0.000000003 of a second to travel a one-meter distance can be expressed as 3 × 10^(-9).
0.000000003 can be written as 3 × 10^(-9).
Therefore, it takes light less than 0.000000003 of a second to travel a one-meter distance can be expressed as 3 × 10^(-9).
