Responses

7.6 × 10−25 < 6.7 × 10−52

7.6 times 10 Superscript negative 25 Baseline is less than 6.7 times 10 Superscript negative 52 Baseline

7.6 × 10−25 = 6.7 × 10−52

7.6 times 10 Superscript negative 25 Baseline equals 6.7 times 10 Superscript negative 52 Baseline

7.6 × 10−25 ≤ 6.7 × 10−52

7.6 times 10 Superscript negative 25 Baseline is less than or equal to 6.7 times 10 Superscript negative 52 Baseline

7.6 × 10−25 > 6.7 × 10−52

Answer 1

7.6 × 10⁻²⁵ > 6.7 × 10⁻⁵²

Reason: 10⁻²⁵ is much larger than 10⁻⁵² (since −25 > −52), and both coefficients are positive, so the first number is greater.
