Answer: ◻ ×10^◻ bacteria

1.4×1051.4 \times 10^{5} bacteria are measured to be in a dirt sample that weighs 11 gram. Use scientific notation to express the number of bacteria that would be in a sample weighing 44 grams.\newlineAnswer: ×10\square \times 10^ \square

Full solution

Q. 1.4×1051.4 \times 10^{5} bacteria are measured to be in a dirt sample that weighs 11 gram. Use scientific notation to express the number of bacteria that would be in a sample weighing 44 grams.\newlineAnswer: ×10\square \times 10^ \square
  1. Multiply by 44: We know the number of bacteria in 11 gram, and we need to find out how many bacteria would be in 44 grams. Since the weight is multiplied by 44, the number of bacteria will also be multiplied by 44.
