Question

A sugar cube has a volume of about 4.9 ml. What is the total volume in milliliters of 1.5 * 10 ^ 6 sugar cubes? (1 point)

7.35 * 10 ^ 7 * ml

7.35 * 10 ^ 5 * ml

0.735 * 10 ^ 7 * ml

7.35 * 10 ^ 6 * ml

Answer 1

To find the total volume of \( 1.5 \times 10^6 \) sugar cubes, you can multiply the number of sugar cubes by the volume of one sugar cube.

Given:
- Volume of one sugar cube = 4.9 ml
- Number of sugar cubes = \( 1.5 \times 10^6 \)

Now calculate the total volume:

\[
\text{Total Volume} = \text{Number of sugar cubes} \times \text{Volume of one sugar cube}
\]
\[
\text{Total Volume} = (1.5 \times 10^6) \times 4.9
\]

Calculating \( 1.5 \times 4.9 \):

\[
1.5 \times 4.9 = 7.35
\]

Then, include the power of ten:

\[
\text{Total Volume} = 7.35 \times 10^6 \text{ ml}
\]

Thus, the total volume of 1.5 million sugar cubes is:

\[
\boxed{7.35 \times 10^6 \text{ ml}}
\]
