Question

A worker bee has a mass of \,1\cdot{ 10^{-4}}1⋅10 −4 space, 1, dot, 10, start superscript, minus, 4, end superscript \text{kg}kgk, g. There are 4\cdot{ 10^4}4⋅10 4 4, dot, 10, start superscript, 4, end superscript worker bees living in one hive. What is the mass of all the worker bees in the hive together? Write your answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

Answer:

4

4 * 10⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of one worker bee = 1 * 10⁻⁴

Number of workers bees in a hive = 4 * 10⁴

Mass of all the worker bees in a hive = (mass of  1 worker bee) * (number of Worker bees in hive)

=> Mass of all the worker bees in a hive = 1 * 10⁻⁴ * 4 * 10⁴

= 4 * 10⁰

=4 * 1

= 4

Mass of all the worker bees in a hive = 4 * 10⁰ = 4
