Question

What is the result of (6.2 × 104) x (3.3 × 102) expressed in scientific notation?

2.0 × 108
2.0 × 107
2.0 × 106
2.0 × 102

Answer 1

2.0 x 108 = 216 and the original equation comes out to 216,000 I would have to say it would be 2.0 x 108

Answer 2

The result in scientific notation is
`2.0*10^(7)`

(B) is correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The value is

`6.2*10^(4)*3.3*10^(2)`

We need to calculate the multiplies

`6.2*10^(4)*3.3*10^(2)=20460000`

`6.2*10^(4)*3.3*10^(2)=2.0*10^(7)`

Scientific notation :

The way of defining numbers that are too big or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form is called scientific notation.

Hence, The result in scientific notation is
`2.0*10^(7)`
