Travis was attempting to make muffins to take to a neighbor that had just moved in down the street. the recipe that he was working with required 3/4 cup of sugar and 1/8 cup of butter. travis accidentally put a whole cup of butter in the mix. a. what is the ratio of sugar to butter in the original recipe? what amount of sugar does travis need to put into the mix to have the same ratio of sugar to butter that the original recipe calls for?

step-by-step explanation:

6x9

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
