The particle of a bacteria is 4.56 x 10 ^(-11) while the particle of a virus is 2.111 x 10^(-15). How many times bigger is the bacteria then the virus?
= 4.56 x 10 ^(-11)/2.111 x 10^(-15)
Use * for multiply, not x
Multiply NUM and DEN by 10^15
= 4.56*10^4/2.111*10^0
=
= times as big, not times bigger
-------------
= 21600 times as big
