The average amount of corn produced per acre represented in scientific notation can be found using the below formula:
The average amount of corn per acre: Bushels of corn produced in a farm/area of farm in acres
We are given:
Area of FARM land = 4.2 × 10² acres
Amount of corn produced = 6.72 × 10⁴ bushels
Substituting the above information in the formula, we get...
The average amount of corn = 6.72 × 10⁴/4.2 × 10²
6.72/4.2 × 10⁴/10² = 1.6 × 10
Conclusion:
The average amount of corn is 1.6 × 10² Bushes per corn
The average amount of corn produced per acre represented in scientific notation is 1.6 x 10² bushels per acre.
