Simplify: (5.4 x 103)(7.2 x 10-6) 3.888 x 1017 3.888 x 10-3 3.888 x 10-2 3.888 x 1010
\[(5.4 \times 10^3)(7.2 \times 10^{-6})\]\[5.4 \times 7.2 \times 10^{-6} \times 10^3\]
First can you do 5.4 x 7.2 ?
38.88
Yes ,That's right Now what is \[10^3\times 10^{-6} = ?\]
\[(5.4*10^3)(7.2*10^{-6})\] \[54/10 * 10^3)(72/10*/10^6)\] \[5400*7200000\] \[38880000000\] convert it in scientific form , well diya is going on a good way i didn't read the question properly

ok you have to remember this \[\Large x^m \times x^n= x^{m+n}\] I'll give you an example \[10^2 + 10^4 = 10^{2+4} =10^6\] so what is \[\large 10^3 \times 10^{-6} = ?\]
IM SORRY ITS -3
Ok so what is \[\Large 10^{-3} \times 10 ^ {-6}= ?\]
3.888 X10-3
\[ \large(5.4 \times 10^{3})( 7.2 \times 10^{-6}) \] is this your question or \[ \large (5.4 \times 10^{-3})( 7.2 \times 10^{-6}) \]
THE FIRST ONE
Ok so we got \[\large 38.88 \times 10^{3} \times 10^{-6}\]\[\large 10^{3} \times 10^{-6} = 10^{3+(-6)}\] so \[38.88 \times 10^{-3}\]
So now we need this in the form 3.888 x
so inorder to shift the decimal to the left side we multiply by \(10^{-1}\) or just divide by 10
