Approximately 7.5 x [tex]10^{5}[/tex] gallons of water flow over a waterfall each second. There are 8.6 x [tex]10^{4}[/tex] seconds in 1 day.

Enter the approximate number of gallons of water that flow over the waterfall in 1 day.

Answer:

The number of gallons of water that flow over the waterfall in 1 day is [tex]6.45*10^{10} gallons[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The number gallons [tex]N[/tex] of water that flow over the waterfall in 1 day is equal to number of gallons that flow in one second multiplied by the number of seconds in a day:

[tex]N =(7.5 *10^5gallons/sec)*(8.6*10^4sec/day)[/tex]

[tex]N = (7.5*8.6)*10^5*10^4[/tex]

[tex]N = 64.5*10^9 gallons[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{N = 6.45*10^{10} gallons }[/tex]
