How many times larger is 9 * 10 ^ - 8 than 3 * 10 ^ - 12 ? (1 point)

Question

6 * 10 ^ - 4

3 * 10 ^ 4

3 * 10 ^ 3

6 * 10 ^ - 3

Answer 1

The answer is 6 * 10 ^ -4.

To calculate this, we divide (9 * 10 ^ -8) by (3 * 10 ^ -12).

(9 * 10 ^ -8) / (3 * 10 ^ -12) = (9/3) * 10 ^ (-8 - (-12)) = 3 * 10 ^ 4 = 6 * 10 ^ -4

Therefore, 6 * 10 ^ -4 is the result.
