Answer:
Given: Ellentown college has approximately 3 times 10 to the 3 power students and pengrove university approximate 30,000 students.
⇒ number of students approximately in Ellentown college = [tex]3 \times 10^3[/tex]
also,
the number of students approximately in Pengrove university = 30,000 or [tex]3 \times 10^4[/tex]
We have to find how many times as much is the number of students at pengrove university as the number of students at Ellentown college.
[tex]\frac{number of students in Pengrove University}{number of students in Ellentown college}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3 \times 10^4}{3 \times 10^3} = 1 \times 10^1 = 10[/tex]
therefore, 10 times as much is the number of students at pengrove university as the number of students at Ellentown college.
