Currently, the largest cruise ship has a tonnage of 225,282 gross tons (gt). which of the following is a reasonable estimate for the tonnage of this cruise ship? a. 2 × 10^5 gt b. 2 × 10^6 gt c. 2 × 10^-5 gt d. 2 × 10^-6 gt

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we use scientific notation.

In this problem we can round the amount 225282 to

200 000

Then, quantity "200,000" has 5 zeros after the number 2.

This means that we can write this amount as:

2 x 100 000 = 2 x 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10. This is the same as:

This way of writing large numbers is known as scientific notation.

Therefore the correct answer is option A.

the answer is somewhere there guys it really . there im just not gonna answer
