Question

Sort the following in the increasing order of their values from top to bottom.

• A. $5.7\times {10}^5$
• B. $7.5\times {10}^2$
• C. $7500$
• D. $5700\times {10}^1$

Answer 1

$7.5\times {10}^2=7.5\times 100=750$
$5700\times {10}^1=5700\times 10=57,000$
$5.7\times {10}^5=5,70,000$

So, it is clear that
750 < 7,500 < 57,000 < 5,70,000
