A field of 3.9 mi2 is being subdivided into 1.3×10^3 family gardens. How many square miles will there be in each garden? Write the answer in scientific notation.(1 point)

1 answer

To find the number of square miles in each garden, divide the total area of the field (3.9 mi^2) by the number of gardens (1.3x10^3):

3.9 mi^2 / 1.3x10^3 = 3x10^(-3) mi^2

Therefore, there will be 3x10^(-3) square miles in each garden.
