19. A rectangular area of land is being sold off in smaller pieces. The total area of the land is
2^15 square miles. The pieces being sold are 8 square miles in size. How many smaller pieces of
land can be sold at the stated size? Compute the actual number of pieces.


Sagot :

we can simply divide the total of 2¹⁵ by 8.

[tex]2^{15}\div 8\implies \cfrac{2^{15}}{8}\implies \cfrac{2^{15}}{2^3}\implies 2^{15}\cdot 2^{-3}\implies 2^{15-3}\implies 2^{12}\implies 4096[/tex]
