Capitolo 1, Problema 95

Perform the indicated computations. Write the answers in scientific notation. If necessary, round the decimal factor in your scientific notation answer to two decimal places. (8.4×108)/(4×105)(8.4×10^8)/(4×10^5)

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the given expression: \(\frac{8.4 \times 10^{8}}{4 \times 10^{5}}\).
Rewrite the expression by separating the coefficients and the powers of 10: \(\frac{8.4}{4} \times \frac{10^{8}}{10^{5}}\).
Divide the coefficients: calculate \(\frac{8.4}{4}\).
Apply the quotient rule for exponents: \(\frac{10^{8}}{10^{5}} = 10^{8-5} = 10^{3}\).
Combine the results to write the answer in scientific notation: multiply the quotient of the coefficients by \$10^{3}$, and if necessary, adjust the decimal factor to be between 1 and 10 by shifting the decimal point and adjusting the exponent accordingly.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Scientific Notation

Scientific notation expresses numbers as a product of a decimal factor and a power of ten, typically in the form a × 10^n, where 1 ≤ a < 10 and n is an integer. It simplifies working with very large or very small numbers by standardizing their format.

Division of Numbers in Scientific Notation

To divide numbers in scientific notation, divide their decimal factors and subtract the exponents of ten. For example, (a × 10^m) ÷ (b × 10^n) = (a ÷ b) × 10^(m−n). This method keeps calculations manageable and consistent.
