1 answer

Galaxy b has more stars than Galaxy a.

To determine how many times more stars Galaxy b has than Galaxy a, we can divide the number of stars in Galaxy b by the number of stars in Galaxy a:

Number of stars in Galaxy b / Number of stars in Galaxy a

(9x10^27) / (5x10^23)

9/5 x (10^27 / 10^23)

1.8 x 10^(27-23)

1.8 x 10^4

Therefore, Galaxy b has 18,000 times more stars than Galaxy a.
