The diameter of the sun is about 1.4 x e6 the diameter of the planet Venus is about 12,000 what is the approximate ratio of the sun to the diameter of Venus? write in a scientific notation.

Respuesta :

1.2 × 10 to the forth power
divided by
1.4 × 10 to the 6 powert

Answer:

approximate ratio for diameters of Sun and Venus is 1.16 x 10^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Diameter of Sun = 1.4 x 10^6

Diameter of planet Venus = 12,000 = 12 x 10^3 = 1.2 x 10^4

Approximate ratio of the sun to the diameter of Venus can be written as:

Ratio = Diameter of sun / Diameter of Venus

Ratio = 1.4 x 10^6  /  1.2 x 10^4

Exponent powers can be simplified using this formula 10^a / 10^b  =  10^ (a - b)

Ratio = (1.4/1.2) * 10^(6 - 4)

Ratio = 1.16 x 10^2

Hence we get approximate ratio for diameters of sun and venus is 1.16 x 10^2.
