What is the scientific notation for the number of kilometers light will travel in 60 seconds?    (time 1sec)  (distance 186,000mi /300,000 km)

anonymous · Answer

I used straight subtraction but ended up with the same answer:
$$60-28=32$$
$$28-12=16$$
$$12-4=8$$
Reduction of a power of 2 for the difference each step so:
$$4-4=0$$
