Answer:
Multiply the following numbers using scientific notation: (2 x 10^3)(2 x 10^4).
(2 x 10^3) = 2*10*10*10 = 2000
(2 x 10^4) = 2*10*10*10*10 = 20000
2000*20000
=40 000 000
= [tex]4 * 10^{7}[/tex]
Divide the following numbers using scientific notation: (4 x 10^2)/(1 x 10^3)
(4 x 10^2) = 4*10*10 = 400
(1 x 10^3) = 1*10*10*10= 1000
400/1000 = 0.4
=[tex]4*10^{-1}[/tex]
Perform the following calculation: (1 x 10^2)(2 x 10^3)/(1 x 10^2)
(1 x 10^2) = 1*10*10= 100
(2 x 10^3) = 2*10*10*10 =2000
100*2000 = 200 000
(1 x 10^2) = 1*10*10 = 100
200 000/100 = 2000
=[tex]2*10^{3}[/tex]
