Explanation:

The distance between Earth and the moon is about 384,100 km.

A number in scientific notation is given as :

$N=x\times 10^y$

Where x is a real number and y is any integer

In scientific notation, the distance between Earth and Moon is :

$d=384100\ km\\\\d=3.8\times 10^5\ km$

It means a = 3 and b = 5.
