Question

Express the order of magnitude of the following quantities 1) 12578935 m

Answer 1

Given : The quantity: 12578935

To find: The order of magnitude of the quantity.

Solution:

• Order of magnitude is a class in a system of classification determined by size, typically in powers of ten.

• So we have given the number: 12578935

• So we can write it in terms of power of 10 as:

             12578935 = 12578935 x 1

                               = 1.2578935 x 10^7

• So this is the required order.

Answer:

               The order of magnitude of the quantity 12578935  is

               1.2578935 x 10^7

Answer 2

Answer:

The order of magnitude of the quantity 12578935 is 1.2578935×10^7
