To find out how many times larger the world population is compared to the population of the country, divide the world population by the population of the country.
World population: 8 x 10^9
Population of the country: 2 x 10^8
Divide the world population by the population of the country:
(8 x 10^9) / (2 x 10^8)
To divide these numbers, we can simplify the expression by dividing 8 by 2:
8 / 2 = 4
Then, we subtract the exponents when dividing:
10^9 / 10^8 = 10^(9-8) = 10^1 = 10
So, the world population is about 4 x 10 times larger than the population of the country.
