Answer: [tex]3.75\times10^{-3}[/tex] seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Time taken by computer program in Shannon's computer carries a single mathematical operation=[tex]1.5\times10^{-6}[/tex] seconds
Time taken by computer program to carry a [tex] 2.5\times10^3[/tex] mathematical operation is given by :-
[tex]2.5\times10^3\times1.5\times10^{-6}\\\\=(2.5\times1.5)\times(10^3\times10^{-6})\\\\=3.75\times10^{3+(-6)}=3.75\times10^{3-6}\\\\=3.75\times10^{-3}[/tex]
Hence, Time taken by computer program to carry a [tex] 2.5\times10^3[/tex] mathematical operation is [tex]3.75\times10^{-3}[/tex] seconds
