4,650 x 100,000 = 4,650 x 10^5 = 4.65 x 10^8 get it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply the two numbers together 4650 * 100,000 = 465.000.000 now convert to scientific notation which is of form n.nn.. * 10^n now count the number of digits from last digit moving to right until you get to just before the first one ( the 4) this is 8 and decimal point comes after the 4 so we get 4.65 * 10^8
