Question

What is the result of (6.2x10^4) x (3.3 x 10^2) expressed in scientific notation?

Answer 1

(6.2x10^4) x (3.3 x 10^2)
(62000) × (330) = 20460000
20460000 = 2.046 × 10^7

2.046 × 10^7 is the answer.

Answer 2

In scientific notation the answer will be written as:
`2.046* 10^7`

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Solution:

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

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

Using identity =
`a^m* a^m =a^(m+n)`

`20.46* 10^6`

In scientific notation the answer will be written as:
`2.046* 10^7`
