How many times greater is the populatiion of China than the population of France? Write the answer in standard notation.


China's population: 1.3 x 10^9

France's population: 6.48 x 10^7

Verified Answer :

china is 2.01 x 10^1 times greater

Answer: \(2.06\times10\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The population of china = \(1.3\times10^9\)

The population of France = \(6.48 \times 10^7\)

Now, the number of times is greater than the population of China the population of France :-

\(n=\dfrac{1.3\times10^9}{6.48\times10^7}\\\\=\dfrac{1.3}{6.48}\times10^{9-7}\\\\=\dfrac{1.3}{6.48}\times10^2=\dfrac{1.3}{6.48}\times100\\\\=20.0617283951\approx20.06=2.06\times10\)

Hence, the population of China is \(2.06\times10\) greater than the population of France.
