Answer:

1.
40000000000
2.
500000000000000
(In case you were asking me to multiply, 20 × 10^24)

Explanation:

Given the following questions:

4*10^(10)

5*10^(14)

In order to find the answers, we take note on how the exponents are positive. We also need to remember how integers always have invisible decimal points.

Question one:


4*10^(10)

4*10^(10) =4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.

4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.=40000000000

40000000000

Question two:


5*10^(14)

5*10^(14)=5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.

5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.=500000000000000

500000000000000

In case you were asking me to multiply:


40000000000*500000000000000=20000000000000000000000000

20000000000000000000000000=20*10^(24)

20*10^(24)

Hope this helps.
