In a certain year, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck California. In another year, a magnitude 5.8 quake struck Kansas. How many times as intense as the Kansas quake was the California quake?

The California quake was 1.34 times as intense as the Kansas quake.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times as intense as Kansas (K) quake was the California (C) quake first, we need to find the ratio of intensity (I) between those earthquakes:

Now, by multiplying the above number for the intensity of the Kansas quake we should have the intensity of the California quake:

Therefore, the California quake was 1.34 times as intense as the Kansas quake.
