Gary measures a paramecium and an ant. the paramecium is 4.2 x 10^-4 meter, and the ant is 3.8 x 10^-3 meter long. how much longer, in meters, is the ant than the paramecium

The answer to your question is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Paramecium's length = 4.2 x 10⁻⁴ m

Ant's length = 3.8 x 10⁻³ m

Process

If we need to know how much longer is the ant than the paramecium, we just need to divide the ant's length by the paramecium's length.

Times that the length of the ant is longer than the paramecium length =

Simplification and result
