Question

Multiply or Divide. Write your answer in scientific notation.8.8 over 4.4 × 10^7 over 10^4 =

Answer 1

To perform the vision given, we first write

$\frac{8.8\times10^7}{4.4\times10^4}$

which can be written as

$\frac{8.8}{4.4}\times\frac{10^7}{10^4}$

Now,

$\frac{8.8}{4.4}=2$

and

$\frac{10^7}{10^4}=10^{7-4}=10^3$

therefore,

$\frac{8.8\times10^7}{4.4\times10^4}=2\times10^3$

which is our answer!
