To find the order of magnitude for each of the given measurements, we will express each number in the form \( x \times 10^y \), where \( x \) is between 0.5 and 5, inclusive. The value of \( y \) will then represent the order of magnitude. Let's go through each measurement step by step: ### (i) 57 1. **Convert to scientific notation**: We can express 57 as \( 5.7 \times 10^1 \). 2. **Identify \( y \)**: Here, \( y = 1 \). 3. **Order of magnitude**: The order of magnitude is **1**. ...
