\(\frac{0.0001432}{1940000}\) = k x 10n where 1 \(\leq\) k < 10 and n is a whole number. The values K and n are
A
7.381 qnd -11
B
2.34 and 10
C
3.871 and 2
D
7.831 and -11
Verified Correct Answer: A.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
\(\frac{0.0001432}{1940000}\) = k x 10n
where 1 \(\leq\) k \(\leq\) 10 and n is a whole number. Using four figure tables, the eqn. gives 7.38 x 10-11
k = 7.381, n = -11
