Q. Which sign makes the statement true?\newline3.60×1043.60 \times 10^4 ?\text{?} 3,6003,600\newlineChoices:\newline(A) >>\newline(B) <<\newline(C) ==
  1. Convert to Scientific Notation: We have 3.60×1043.60 \times 10^4 and 3,6003,600. \newlineFirst, let's express 3,6003,600 in scientific notation to compare it easily with 3.60×1043.60 \times 10^4.\newline3,600=3.60×1033,600 = 3.60 \times 10^3
  2. Compare Exponents: Now we compare 3.60×1043.60 \times 10^4 with 3.60×1033.60 \times 10^3. Since the base numbers (3.603.60) are the same, we only need to compare the exponents. The exponent in 3.60×1043.60 \times 10^4 is 44, and the exponent in 3.60×1033.60 \times 10^3 is 33. 4>34 > 3 Therefore, 3.60×104>3.60×1033.60 \times 10^4 > 3.60 \times 10^3
