To answer this question, we can calculate the ratio between the two quantities.
First, let's simplify the exponential notation:
4 × 10^4 = 4 × 10,000
2 × 10^2 = 2 × 100
Now, let's find the ratio:
(4 × 10,000) / (2 × 100) = 40,000 / 200 = 200
So, 4 × 10^4 is 200 times larger than 2 × 10^2.
How many times is 4 × 10^4 larger than 2 × 10^2 ?
