Question

Perform the following operationand express the answer inscientific notation.7.15x103 x 6.10x10-5[ ? ]x10?Coefficient (green) Exponent (yellow)Enter

Answer 1

`\text{ 43.62 }*10^(-2)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to perform the given mathematical operation

To do this, we take the like terms together and arrange them

We have this as:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ 7.15 }*\text{ 6.10 }*10^3\text{ }*10^(-5) \\ =\text{ 43.615 }*10^(3-5) \\ =\text{ 43.615 }*10^(-2) \end{gathered}`

We write the final answer in 3 significant figures too as follows:

`\text{ = 43.62 }*10^(-2)`
