To find out how many times hotter the Red Savina Habanero is compared to the Thai Pepper, we need to calculate their relative hotness ratings.
Hotness Rating of Thai Pepper = 7.5 × 10^4
Hotness Rating of Red Savina Habanero = 4.6 × 10^5
To find out the difference in hotness, we divide the hotness rating of the Red Savina Habanero by the hotness rating of the Thai Pepper:
4.6 × 10^5 / 7.5 × 10^4 = (4.6 / 7.5) × (10^5 / 10^4)
Simplifying the equation inside the parentheses:
= 0.61333333333 × 10
Multiplying the two numbers:
= 6.1333333333 × 10
Therefore, the Red Savina Habanero is approximately 6.13 times hotter than the Thai Pepper.
