In 2012, on average, about $9.46/times10^{-1}$ pound of potatoes was produced for every $2.3/times10^{-5}$ acre harvested. How many pounds of potatoes on average were produced for each acre harvested? Write your answer in scientific notation and in standard form. Round to the nearest pound per acre.

4.113 * 10⁴ pounds per acre = 41,130 pounds per acre to the nearest pounds per acre

Step-by-step explanation:

9.46 * 10⁻¹ pounds of potatoes were produced for every 2.3 * 10⁻⁵ acre harvested. The average pounds of potatoes harvested per acre would be pounds of potatoes/acres harvested = 9.46 * 10⁻¹ pounds/2.3 * 10⁻⁵ acre = 4.113 * 10 ⁻¹⁻⁻⁵ = 4.113 * 10⁵⁻¹ = 4.113 * 10⁴ pounds per acre = 41,130 pounds per acre to the nearest pounds per acre.
