(3x10^5) x (3x10^6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add the indices together and you have your answer. This follows the indices law where anything to the power multiplied together are added together like so. 10^2 * 10^6 = 10^2+6. So your answer is simply 3x10^11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry that was the wrong question, the question is multiply without exponents (3x10^5) x (3x10^6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?? so what 3x3? =9x10^11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 900,000,000,000 but I think when I took a test earlier I was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x10^5x3x10^6 = 9*10^11, add the exponents and just multiply the constants

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no you are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

except you should have left it in a nicer answer such as 9x10^11 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it didn't want any exponents so I could have done that right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes that is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your welcome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3*10^)*(3*10^6) (3*10^5+6) (3*10^11) is your answer.
