Answer:

C.) 2.226 times 10^8

10^(4+3) = 10^7

22.26*10^7

2.226 * 10 ^(7+1)

Answer:


2.226X 10^8

Explanation:

We are to determine the value of
(5.3 X 10^4) (4.2 X 10 ^ 3) in scientific notation.

Given:


(5.3 X 10^4) (4.2 X 10 ^ 3)

STEP 1: Remove the brackets.


(5.3 X 10^4) (4.2 X 10 ^ 3)=5.3 X 10^4X4.2 X 10 ^ 3

STEP 2: Separate the numbers and index of 10.


=5.3 X4.2X 10^4 X 10 ^ 3

STEP 3: Multiply the Numbers and Index of 10


=22.26X 10^(4+3)

STEP 4: Simplify and write in Scientific notation


22.26=2.226X10\\Therefore:\\22.26X 10^(4+3)=2.226X10X 10^(4+3)=2.226X10X 10^7=2.226X 10^8

Thus:


(5.3 X 10^4) (4.2 X 10 ^ 3)=2.226X 10^8 in scientific notation
