Question

Multiply (5.6 x 10") (6.1 x 10* )and write the
answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

3.416 x 10^(" + * + 1)

Explanation:

The exponents of (5.6 x 10") (6.1 x 10* ) seem incorrect. Whatever they are, do the following:

1) multiply 5.6 times 6.1. Result = 34.16

Add the two exponents: (" + *)

The result is 34.16 x 10^(" + *)

Then move the decimal point one to the left and add 1 to the 10 exponent:

3.416 x 10^(" + * + 1)
