The correct scientific notation will be: \(\Rightarrow (1.3 \times 6.4) \times (10^{-5} \times 10^8) \)

Parth (parthkohli):

Correct! Good job doing it by yourself :)

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

great...now multiply 10^-5 x 10^8 what do you get??

Parth (parthkohli):

What is \(10^{-5} \times 10^8\)?

Parth (parthkohli):

I get 10^...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10^3 ???

Parth (parthkohli):

Yay! YEP

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

so what's (1.3x10^-5 ) x (6.4x10^8)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= 8.32x10^3

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes! :D

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
