Adult humans have approximately 2.6 x 10 red blood cells and 3.92 x 10 white blood cells about how many times greater is the number of red blood cells than white blood cells

Answer :

Answer:

The number of red blood cells is approximately [tex]660[/tex] times greater than white blood cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Red blood cells [tex]$2.6 \times 10^{6} / \mathrm{mm}^{3}=2.600 .000 \times \mathrm{mm}^{3}$[/tex]  
  • White blood cells [tex]$3.92 \times 10^{3} / \mathrm{mm}^{3}=3.920 \times \mathrm{mm}^{3}$[/tex]

To find how many times greater is the number of red blood cells than white blood cells

Divide the amount of the former between the second

[tex]=\frac{2,600.000}{3,920}[/tex]

[tex]=663.27[/tex]    

≈ [tex]660[/tex]  

Therefore, number of red blood cells is approximately [tex]660[/tex] times greater than white blood cells.
