Explanation / Answer

Richter scale of largest measured earthquake in Idaho= 7.2

a)largest recorded earthquake centred on Montana was 3.16 times as powerful as the Idaho earthquake

Richter scale = 3.16*7.2

=22.752

b)Richter scale of Arizona earthquake =5.6

Richter scale of Idaho earthquake =7.2 =1.2857* 5.6

So, Idaho earthquake is 1.2857 times the Arizona earthquake.
