Can someone tell me if I’m correct?
The building at Denali can withstand a quake of magnitude 6.7, 70 times as intense.
The building at Rat Islands can withstand a quake of magnitude 7.8, 30 times as intense.
Use the properties of multiplication to solve.
Denali —> 6.7 * 70 = 469
Rat Islands —> 7.8 * 30 = 234
Solution: The building in Denali can withstand a higher magnitude of quake.
