To find the number of feathers needed, we divide the total weight by the weight of one feather.
Number of feathers = Total weight / Weight of one feather
Number of feathers = (4.1 x 10^3 g) / (0.0082 g)
Number of feathers = 5 x 10^5
Therefore, you would need 5 x 10^5 feathers to make a weight of 4.1 x 10^3 g.
A feather weighs 0.0082 g. How many feathers would you need to make a weight of 4.1 x 10^3 g. Write the answer in scientific notation
