An ant has a mass of approximately 4 times 10 the power of -3 grams and an elephant has a mass of approximately 8 metric tons.
how many ants does it take to have the same mass as an elephant?

2,000,000,000 ants

Step-by-step explanation:

Ant's mass is   grams

Putting that into decimal [or converting scientific notation to decimal]

We have:

0.004 grams

Note: to the power -3 means taking the decimal point 3 places left, so we have 0.004 grams

To compare, we have to take the elephant's weight to grams.

Firstly, 1 metric ton = 1000 kg

So 8 metric ton = 1000 * 8 = 8000 kg

Now, we know 1000 grams = 1 kg, so

8000 kg = 8000 * 1000 = 8,000,000 grams

The elephants weight (in grams) is 8,000,000 grams

How many ants are there in this?? We simply divide and find:

8,000,000/0.004 = 2,000,000,000 ants

It takes 2,000,000,000 ants to equate the mass of one elephant

answer:

it is general formula that is used to write value to its excet position

a11 a12 a13

a21 a22 a23

it is the example of order 2 by 3 matrix in this

a11 means value occur in 1 st row 1st column

a12 means value occurs in 1st row 2nd column

a13 means value occur in 1st row and 3rd column

a21 means value occurs in 2nd row and 1st column

a22 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 2nd column

a23 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 3rd column

greater than one
