A particular star cluster contains stars all with the same apparent magnitude of +4. Near the cluster (and at the same distance from the Earth) is a single star with an apparent magnitude of +1. The star's brightness appears to be the same as the collective brightness of the entire cluster.
How many stars are in this cluster?

Respuesta :

3,000 stars.

Explanation:

Subtract the magnitude of the single star from the magnitude of the star cluster.

(+4) - (+1) = +3

Then multiply your answer by 1000

= 3,000 is a stars.
