To determine which continent is larger, we compare the areas of continent X and continent Y.
Area of continent X = 7.82×10⁷ square miles
Area of continent Y = 6.91×10⁷ square miles
We can see that the area of continent X is larger than the area of continent Y.
To find out by how much square miles continent X is greater than continent Y, we subtract the area of continent Y from the area of continent X:
(7.82×10⁷) - (6.91×10⁷) = 0.91×10⁷
Therefore, continent X is larger than continent Y by 0.91×10⁷ square miles.
Area of continent X = 7.82×10⁷ square miles
Area of continent Y = 6.91×10⁷ square miles
We can see that the area of continent X is larger than the area of continent Y.
