Question
You're an engineer working for a consulting firm on a state highway construction project. You're placing an order for steel reinforcing bar with a new vendor. Based on your calculations, you'll need to order 5.8E3 kilograms of steel. Your vendor requires that orders be placed in increments of metric tons. How many metric tons should you order to meet your need?
Note: the expression "E" is used to indicate 10 raised to the power of the following number, so, the expression 4E2 is equivalent to 4*102
Group of answer choices
6 metric tons
5 metric tons
10 metric tons
