Hello :3

 

I'm having a lot of difficulty with this question:

 

An ant has a mass of around 18x10g and the total population on earth is estimated at 100x10 ants.  If a hippo has a mass of 4000kg, how many hippos represent the total mass of ants on earth?
 The final answer must be in scientific notation.

 

Thanks for helping me out!

Did you forget the exponents on 18 x 10?  and  100 x 10? ?
