On average, a commercial airplane burns about 3.9 × 10³ milliliters of gasoline per second. There can be as many as 5.1 × 10³ airplanes in the air in the United States at any given time. About how many milliliters per minutes of gasoline are burned by commercial airplanes in the United States at any given time?

Respuesta :

1 plane burns 60x3.9x10^3
= 234x10^3 mls per minute
Required amount =
234x10^3 x 5.1x10^3
= 11934x10^6
= 1.1934x10^10 MLS Answer

60 x 3.9x10-3 = 234x10e3ml/minute/plane

You have 5.1x10e3 planes in the air

(234 x 5.1) (10e6) ---you add the two exponents together for this one

1193.4 x 10e6...which turns into 1.2 x 10e9
