Question

Which number is greater,
23×10^3
or
11×10^4?

How do you know? Explain your steps.

Answer 1

Answer:

11×10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

11×10^4=110000

23×10^3=23000

Answer 2

the greater number would be 11•10^4

to know this, you have to evaluate each equation and compare your answers.

10^3 = 1,000
23•1,000 = 23,000

10^4 = 10,000
11•10,000 = 110,000

110,000 > 23,000
