(1 point)
Divide (4.5 * 10 ^ 3)/(7.5 * 10 ^ 8) = 4.5/7.5 * 10 ^ (5 - 4) = 0.613 * 10 ^ 1 - 6, 13 times hotter
Divide (7.5 * 10 ^ 4)/(4.6 * 10 ^ 4) = 7.5/4.6 * 10 ^ 4.5 = 1.63 * 10 ^ 1 = 16.3 times hotter
Multiply (7.5 * 10 ^ 4)(4.6 * 10 ^ 5) = (7.5 * 4.6)(10 ^ (4 + 5)) = 34.5 * 10 ^ 9 = 3.45 * 10 ^ 10 times hotter
Multiply (7.5 * 10 ^ 4)(4.6 * 10 ^ 5) = (7.5 * 4.6) (10 ^ 4.5) = 34.5 * 10 ^ 20 - 3.45 * 10 ^ 21
