Q. Which sign makes the statement true?\newline6.5×1016.5 \times 10^1 ?? 5.6×1015.6 \times 10^1\newlineChoices:\newline(A) >>\newline(B) <<\newline(C) ==\newline
  1. Exponents Comparison: We have 6.5×1016.5 \times 10^1 and 5.6×1015.6 \times 10^1. \newlineAre the exponents the same or different?\newlineExponents are both 11. \newlineBoth exponents are the same.
  2. Coefficient Comparison: Since the exponents are the same, we can compare the coefficients directly.\newlineWhich sign makes the statement true?\newline6.5×1016.5 \times 10^1 ____ 5.6×1015.6 \times 10^1\newlineCompare the coefficients because they are the same. \newlineCoefficients are 6.56.5 and 5.65.6. \newline6.5>5.66.5 > 5.6 \newline6.5×101>5.6×1016.5 \times 10^1 > 5.6 \times 10^1.
