Answer:
Venezuela's export of coffee is 30 times greater than Malawi's.
Step-by-step explanation:
Malawi's exports = 1 × 10³ = = 1 × (10 × 10 × 10) = 1 × 1000 = 1000 metric tons
Venezuela's exports = 3 × 10⁴ = 3 × (10 × 10 × 10 × 10) = 1 × 10,000 = 30,000 metric tons
To find by how many times greater is Venezuela's coffee export amount than Malawi's, we will divide the former by the later.
[tex]\frac{Venezuels's\ export}{Malawi's\ export} = \frac{30,000}{1000} = 30[/tex]
Therefore, Venezuela's export of coffee is 30 times greater than Malawi's.
