Write 452.7 x 10^3 is correct scientific notation by moving the decimal 2 places left and adding 2 to the exponent. 4.527 x 10^5 - 2.7 x 10^5 Now subtract 4.527 - 2.7, and leave 10^5 alone

OpenStudy (testing123guest):

1.827 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, so it's 1.827 x 10^5

OpenStudy (testing123guest):
