Answer:
1.2×10⁸ is greater than 6×10³ by a factor of 2×10⁴, or 20000.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this simply by dividing the first one by the second one:
[tex]\frac{1.2\times 10^8}{6\times 10^3} \\\\= \frac{1.2}{6} \times \frac{10^8}{10^3} \\\\= \frac{12}{6} \times \frac{10^7}{10^3} \\\\= 2.0 \times 10^4 \\\\[/tex]
