Kale works in a packaging factory that has 900 employees. By the end of each day, they manage to package 3. 2 Ă— 105 products. What is the average amount of products packaged per employee represented in scientific notation? Round so the first factor goes to the tenths place.

Answer 1

The average amount of products packaged per employee represented in scientific notation is;

3.6 × 10² products

We are given;

Number of employees in the factory = 900

Amount of products packaged by the employees per day = 3.2 × 10^(5) products

Thus;

Average amount of products packaged per employee per day = Amount packaged by all in a day/number of employees

Average amount of products packaged per employee per day = (3.2 × 10^(5))/900

Average amount of products packaged per employee per day ≈ 356

We are told to make the factor go to the tens place.

Thus;

Average amount of products packaged per employee per day = 360 or 3.6 × 10² products.
