A sugar factory has annual sales of 3 billion 720 million kilograms of sugar. Express this number in the standard form.
Answer :
Annual sales of sugar in sugar factory = 3 billion 720 million kilograms = 3720000 kg
∴ standard form of 3720000 kg = 372 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 kg
= 372 × 104 kg
= 3.72 × 104 × 102 kg
Using the law of exponent,
= 3.72 × 106 kg
