Hi! Ok so my little sister needs help with math but I have no idea what to do. "A recipe makes 6 2/3 cups of pancake batter. If you use 5/6 of a cup of batter for one pancake, how many pancakes can you make?"
I know the answer is 8, but what are the units?

Cups are the unit

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were using cups so 8 pancakes you use 5/6 of a cup per pancake

(a unit is just what you use to measure something, so cups, liters, or even cm or meters)

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.

you'll just earn points here
