Final answer:
To express the given expressions in scientific notation, multiply the numerical parts and add the exponents.
Step-by-step explanation:
To express the given expressions in scientific notation, we need to multiply the numerical parts and add the exponents. Let's solve each expression one by one:
1. (2.2 x 107)(5 x 108)
Multiplying the numerical parts: 2.2 x 5 = 11
Adding the exponents: (107) x (108) = 1015
So, the result is 11 x 1015.
2. (2.5 x 103)(8.8 x 105)
Multiplying the numerical parts: 2.5 x 8.8 = 22
Adding the exponents: (103) x (105) = 108
So, the result is 22 x 108.
