Question

What is the quotient of 9.8×10^7 and 7.0×10^4 expressed in scientific notation

Answer 1

The quotient of the given expressions in scientific notation is

1.4 x 10³

Step by Step Explanation

The question given is:

what is the quotient of 9.8×10⁷ and 7.0×10⁴ expressed in scientific notation​?

To solve the above, let us clearly represent its quotient form:

`(9.8*10^7)/(7.0*10^4)`

Divide the decimal parts and use the law of indices on the exponent part.

That is;

`=1.4*10^(7-4)`
`=1.4*10^3`
