Question

find the quotient of 4.13 x10-8 and 0.04 x 105. In two or more complete sentences, explain each step in your calculations. Include the quotient as part of your final answer

Answer 1

1. Divide the non-exponent parts (4.13/0.04)
2. Divide the exponential parts by using exponent rules (since both of them are of the same base, we simply subtract the exponents and re-write the base)
3. Re-write the result in scientific notation
