how many times bigger is 3,959 miles than 4.3441x10^4

Answer 1

To determine how many times bigger 3,959 miles is than \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \), we can divide 3,959 by \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \).

First, let's convert \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \) to its standard form:

\[ 4.3441 \times 10^4 = 43,441 \]

Now we perform the division:

\[ \frac{3959}{43441} \approx 0.0911 \]

This indicates that 3,959 miles is approximately 0.0911 times the size of \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \). In other words, 3,959 miles is significantly smaller than \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \).

If you want to find out how many times bigger \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \) is than 3,959 miles, you can take the reciprocal:

\[ \frac{43441}{3959} \approx 10.97 \]

Thus, \( 4.3441 \times 10^4 \) (or 43,441) is approximately 10.97 times bigger than 3,959 miles.
