Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question! the solution is as such:

R1= log10 (x/ xo)

so, R1= log10 (6.6/ 4.8)

similarly,

R2= log10 (7.1/ 4.8)


on dividing,

R2/  R1 = 0.17 / 0.138

R2/ R1= 1.23 TIMES


THEREFORE THE SECOND EARTHQUAKE WAS 1.23 TIMES STRONGER THAN FIRST ONE.
