Hi there! :)
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{C}[/tex]
To simplify the process, convert each given weight into standard notation:
Lion:
[tex]1 * 10^{5} = 1 * 100000 = 100,000 g[/tex]
Ant:
[tex]2 * 10^{-3} = 2* 0.001 = 0.002[/tex]
Divide the ant's weight from the lion's weight:
[tex]100000 / 0.002 = 50,000,000[/tex]
Convert to scientific notation: (use # of zeros to determine exponent)
[tex]50,000,000 = 5 * 10^{7}[/tex]
Therefore, the correct answer is C.
