To calculate the number of times an average person blinks in a year, we need to multiply the number of blinks per hour (15) by the number of hours in a day (24), and then multiply that result by the number of days in a year (365).
15 blinks/hour * 24 hours/day * 365 days/year = 131,400 blinks/year
To write this in scientific notation, we can express it as 1.314 x 10^5 blinks/year.
Suppose an average person blinks 15 times per hour. How many times does an average person blink in a year? Write the answer in scientific notation
