    What is the answer to 5 x 10^5? note- the exponent is represented by __^5. Here the exponent is 5

    • A.

      600,000

    • B.

      500,000

    • C.

      5 x 10^5

    • D.

      50,000

    Correct Answer
    B. 500,000
    Explanation
    The answer to 5 x 10^5 is 500,000. This is because when you multiply 5 by 10^5, you are essentially multiplying 5 by 10 raised to the power of 5. This means you are multiplying 5 by 10, five times. Each time you multiply by 10, you move the decimal point one place to the right. So, multiplying 5 by 10 five times gives you 500,000.
