To find the number of times higher the number of library visits before the examination day compared to the number of visits in an average week, we need to divide the number of visits before the examination day by the number of visits in an average week.
Number of visits before examination day = 2 × 10^3
Number of visits in an average week = 5 × 10^2
Number of times higher = (2 × 10^3) / (5 × 10^2)
Since 10^3 is 1,000 and 10^2 is 100, we can simplify the expression:
Number of times higher = (2 × 1,000) / (5 × 100)
Number of times higher = 2,000 / 500
Number of times higher = 4
Therefore, the number of library visits before the examination day is 4 times higher compared to the number of visits in an average week.
Two weeks before an examination day, a librarian monitored the number of students who visited the library. Then they compared it with the number of visits made in an average week. Approximately 2×10^3
visits were reflected in their logbook during this two-week period, while only about 5×10^2
were reflected on an average week. How many times higher is the number of library visits before examination day compared to the library visits in an average week? Your answer should be a whole number.(1 point)
