Study Notes
Identifying the Greatest Number
- The question asks to find the greatest number among several options presented in scientific notation.
- The numbers are: 5.25 x 105, 5.55 x 105, 2.55 x 105, and 5 x 105.
- To determine which is the largest, compare the values of the coefficients (the numbers before the 'x 105') and exponents.
- The exponents are all the same (105), so we only need to compare the coefficients.
- The largest coefficient is 5.55.
- Therefore, 5.55 x 105 is the greatest number.
