To find out how many times more bird species there are than frog species, you'll first need to convert the scientific notation into standard numbers.
- For birds: \(3.4 \times 10^2 = 3.4 \times 100 = 340\)
- For frogs: \(2.2 \times 10^1 = 2.2 \times 10 = 22\)
Now, to find how many times more bird species there are than frog species, divide the number of bird species by the number of frog species:
\[
\text{Number of times} = \frac{\text{Number of bird species}}{\text{Number of frog species}} = \frac{340}{22} \approx 15.45
\]
Therefore, there are approximately **15.45 times more bird species than frog species** in Georgia.
- For birds: \(3.4 \times 10^2 = 3.4 \times 100 = 340\)
- For frogs: \(2.2 \times 10^1 = 2.2 \times 10 = 22\)
Now, to find how many times more bird species there are than frog species, divide the number of bird species by the number of frog species:
\[
\text{Number of times} = \frac{\text{Number of bird species}}{\text{Number of frog species}} = \frac{340}{22} \approx 15.45
\]
Therefore, there are approximately **15.45 times more bird species than frog species** in Georgia.
