An office upgrades its internet speed from 10^4 bits per second to 10^8 bits per second. How many times greater is the new internet speed?

10000 times greater
10^4 is 10000
And 10^8 is 100000000

38+105= 143, 39+104=143, and you will find then adding the numbers on opposite sides, moving inwards yields the answer 138 every time. because of this, you’re going to multiply 138 times the number of pairs, which is 34. therefore, 34*138= 4692(i’m sorry if it’s the wrong numbers, but it’s the right concept)
