How many times larger is 2 x 10^2 is 2 x 10^8?

You must calculate the quotient:
[tex](2\times10^8):(2\times10^2)=\dfrac{2\times10^8}{2\times10^2}=\dfrac{2}{2}\times10^{8-2}=1\times10^6=1,000,000\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\text{One million times larger}}[/tex]
Answer:
10^6 or 1,000,000 (1 million) times larger
Step-by-step explanation:
How many times larger means take the larger number and divide by the smaller number
2 * 10^8
---------------
2 * 10 ^2
When we divide powers of 10
We divide the numbers out front and subtract the power of 10
2/2 * 10^(8-2)
1 * 10^ 6
