how many times less is 10^2 than 10^6? express your answer as an integer power of 10.

1. 0.0001
2. 10^4
3. 10,000
4. 10^-4

The answer is 10^4. To find this, we divide 10^6 by 10^2. This can be simplified as 10^(6-2) = 10^4. So, 10^6 is 10^4 times greater than 10^2.

To determine how many times less 10^2 is than 10^6, we need to divide the two values.

10^6 divided by 10^2 can be calculated as follows:

10^6 / 10^2 = 10^(6-2) = 10^4

Therefore, the answer is 10^4. So, option 2 is correct.

To find out how many times less 10^2 is than 10^6, we need to divide 10^6 by 10^2.

10^6 / 10^2 = 10^(6-2) = 10^4

So, the answer is 10^4, which means that 10^2 is 10,000 times less than 10^6. Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.
