Question

What is (24 x 10 to the power of 3)/(3 x 10 to the power of 2)

Answer 1

The answer is 15,360

Answer 2

Explanation:

Step 1: Understand the question.

We are asked to divide two numbers. Both numbers are in the form of a number multiplied by a power of 10.

Step 2: Start with the numbers without the powers of 10.

Divide 24 by 3:

`\[ (24)/(3) = 8 \]`

Step 3: Now, let's handle the powers of 10.

When dividing numbers with the same base and different exponents, you subtract the exponents. In this case, the base is 10.

`\[ 10^3 / 10^2 = 10^((3-2)) = 10^1 \]`

Step 4: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3.

`\[ 8 * 10^1 = 80 \]`

Final Answer:

`\[ (24 * 10^3)/(3 * 10^2) = 80 \]`
