Problem Statement

An ant walks a distance A=109A = 10^9 millimeters. A bear walks B=106B = 10^6 feet. A chicken walks C=108C = 10^8 inches. What is the correct ordering of A,B,C?A, B, C? (Note there are 25.425.4 millimeters in an inch, and there are 1212 inches in a foot.) a. A<B<Cb. A<C<Bc. C<B<Ad. B<A<Ce. B<C<A \mathrm a. ~ A<B<C\qquad \mathrm b.~A<C<B\qquad \mathrm c. ~C<B<A \qquad \mathrm d. ~B<A<C \qquad \mathrm e. ~B<C<A
