To determine the smallest value of k, we want to find the lowest power of 10 that makes the given expression, 3.54×10^k, larger than 3.54×10^4.
By comparing the exponents, we can see that the expression 3.54×10^k is larger than 3.54×10^4 when k is greater than 4.
Therefore, the smallest value of k is 5.
