To start this problem, we recognize that the term how many times bigger is a division problem.
00:08
Times bigger is division.
00:09
So we will take the bigger object, which is jupiter, 1 .90 times 10 to the 27th power, and divide by mercury.
00:20
Mercury is 3 .30 times 10 to the 23rd power.
00:27
To do this, we're simply going to divide the numbers, 1 .9 .0.
00:31
Divided by 3 .30, and we get the answer of, and this is a repeating decimal, 057, 57, and so on.
00:44
Times 10 to the, and we actually, with the division, we actually subtract the powers.
00:49
27 minus 23 is fourth to the fourth power.
00:53
This is not in scientific notation because this number is not between 1 and 9999999, about 10.
01:02
So we need to actually move this decimal to the right by multiplying it by 10...
