To determine how many times 4 × 10^4 is larger than 2 × 10^2, we can divide the first number by the second number.
(4 × 10^4) / (2 × 10^2) = (4/2) × (10^4/10^2) = 2 × 10^2 = 200
Therefore, 4 × 10^4 is 200 times larger than 2 × 10^2.

To determine how many times less 10^2 is than 10^6, we can divide the larger number by the smaller number.
(10^6) / (10^2) = 10^(6-2) = 10^4
Therefore, 10^2 is 10^4 times less than 10^6.
Roughly, it takes light less than 0.000000003 of a second to travel a one-meter distance. Express this number in the form of a × 10^n where 1 < a < 10 and is a one-digit number.(1 point)

Roughly, it takes light less than 0.000000003 of a second to travel a one-meter distance. This can be expressed as 3 × 10^(-9).
