8.EE.A.3 | Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Calculus & Higher Level Thinking
Grade 8
Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. *For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 times 10^8 and the population of the world as 7 times 10^9, and determine that the world population is more than 20 times larger*.

The central graph in Part 2 and 3 has a logarithmic X- and Y- axis. Though logarithms are not an explicit learning target; rather, they are asked to interpret the graph using relative units, this can be an opportunity to dive deeper into this topic if you like.
