Final answer:
To solve the secondary exercise, the numbers were converted to scientific notation, multiplied, and the result 3.415696 × 10^-18 was expressed in scientific notation as well.
Step-by-step explanation:
The task is to write a Java program that displays the result of an equation that yields the output 0.8392857142857143. However, the actual equation is not provided within the question, so I'll proceed with the additional exercise given.
For the additional exercise:
First, convert the numbers to scientific notation:
- 0.00000000552 can be written as 5.52 × 10-9
- 0.0000000006188 can be written as 6.188 × 10-10
Multiply the numbers:
5.52 × 10-9 × 6.188 × 10-10 = 34.15696 × 10-19
Express the result in scientific notation:
The final result, after adjusting the decimal point, becomes 3.415696 × 10-18.
