Q. Which sign makes the statement true?\newline380?3.8×101380 \, ? \, 3.8 \times 10^{1}\newlineChoices:\newline(A) >>\newline(B) <<\newline(C) ==
  1. Express in standard form: We have the numbers 380380 and 3.8×1013.8 \times 10^1. We need to compare these two numbers to determine which sign makes the statement true.\newlineFirst, let's express 3.8×1013.8 \times 10^1 in its standard form.\newline3.8×101=3.8×10=383.8 \times 10^1 = 3.8 \times 10 = 38
  2. Compare in standard form: Now we compare the two numbers in their standard form. \newline380?38380 ? 38\newlineSince 380380 is greater than 3838, the correct sign that makes the statement true is '>'.\newline380 > 38
