The shutter speed setting on a camera controls the length of time the shutter is open when taking a picture. Sidney set the shutter speed on his camera to open the shutter for 8 x 10-4 second to take a picture of a bee and for 2 x 10-2 second to take a picture of the sky.
Was the shutter open for a longer amount of time for the picture of the bee or the sky, and how many times more seconds was it open?

The shutter was open for a longer period of time for the picture of the sky. 0.02 ÷ 0.0008 = 25, so it was open 25 times as long.
