Answer 2

`7000* 50 = 3,50,000 = 35* 10^4`

Explanation:

We have to find the product of 7,000 and 50 and express it in the form of product of a whole number and power of 10.

First, we will find the product.

`7000* 50 = 3,50,000`

Now, we have to express this product as a sum of whole number and power of 10.

3,50,000 can be written as:

`3,50,000 = 35* 10^4`

Here, 35 is our whole number and
`10^4` is required power of 10.

We used the rule of exponents to express the product in such manner.
