The area of the Pacific Ocean is about 6.0061 x 10^7 square miles. The area of the Southern Ocean is about 7.8483 x 10^6 square miles. Approximately how many times larger is the area of the Pacific Ocean than that of the Southern Ocean?

Respuesta :

Answer:

7.653 larger

Step-by-step explanation:

Pacific area/Southern area = (6.0061) * 10^7 / (7.8483) * 10^6

                            = 6.0061/ 7.8483    *    10^7/10^6

                            = 0.7653    *    10^(7-6)

                            = 0.7653   *   10^1

                             = 0.7653 * 10

                             = 7.653

Compared to the Southern Ocean, the Pacific Ocean is about 7.653 times larger.
