The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options has the largest value, we will convert each option into scientific notation and compare their values. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Options**: - Option 1: 0.001 - Option 2: 1/10,000 - Option 3: 1/10^6 - Option 4: 1/(10^6 / 0.1) 2. **Convert Each Option to Scientific Notation**: - **Option 1**: \[ 0.001 = 1 \times 10^{-3} \] - **Option 2**: \[ \frac{1}{10,000} = \frac{1}{10^4} = 1 \times 10^{-4} \] - **Option 3**: \[ \frac{1}{10^6} = 1 \times 10^{-6} \] - **Option 4**: \[ \frac{1}{10^6 / 0.1} = \frac{0.1}{10^6} = \frac{1 \times 10^{-1}}{10^6} = 1 \times 10^{-1} \times 10^{-6} = 1 \times 10^{-7} \] 3. **List the Values in Scientific Notation**: - Option 1: \( 10^{-3} \) - Option 2: \( 10^{-4} \) - Option 3: \( 10^{-6} \) - Option 4: \( 10^{-7} \) 4. **Compare the Exponents**: - The values are \( 10^{-3}, 10^{-4}, 10^{-6}, 10^{-7} \). - The largest value corresponds to the least negative exponent. 5. **Determine the Largest Value**: - The least negative exponent is \(-3\) from Option 1, which means: \[ 10^{-3} > 10^{-4} > 10^{-6} > 10^{-7} \] - Therefore, Option 1 has the largest value. ### Conclusion: The option with the largest value is **Option 1: 0.001**.
