How to solve for scientific notation

When you add or subtract, all exponents must be the same.

When you multiply, multiply the variables then add the exponents. When you divide, divide the variables then subtract the exponents. Move the decimal point as needed to obtain the correct number of significant figures as the variable with the least number of decimal places.
