On Monday, 4 x 10 to the power of 2 people went to Fun World Amusement Park. On Tuesday, there were 3 x 10 to the power of 6 patrons at the amusement park. How many times larger was Tuesday's attendance than Monday's ?

Answer :

MrRoyal

The Monday and Tuesday attendance are illustrations of proportions.

Tuesday's attendance is larger than Monday's 7500

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{Monday = 4 \times 10^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Tuesday = 3 \times 10^6}[/tex]

The number of times (n) the Tuesday attendance is larger than Monday's is:

[tex]\mathbf{n = \frac{Tuesday}{Monday}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{n = \frac{3 \times 10^6}{4 \times 10^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 0.75 \times 10^{6-2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 0.75 \times 10^{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 7500}[/tex]

Hence, Tuesday's attendance is larger than Monday's 7500
