To determine how many times \( 4 \times 10^4 \) is larger than \( 2 \times 10^2 \), we can first calculate the values of each expression:

1. Calculate \( 4 \times 10^4 \):
\[
4 \times 10^4 = 4 \times 10000 = 40000
\]

2. Calculate \( 2 \times 10^2 \):
\[
2 \times 10^2 = 2 \times 100 = 200
\]

Next, we divide the first result by the second to find how many times larger it is:
\[
\frac{40000}{200} = 200
\]

Thus, \( 4 \times 10^4 \) is **200 times** larger than \( 2 \times 10^2 \).

The correct response is:
**200**
