Multiply. Write the result in scientific notation.
(2.6×10^1)(7×10^4)
182×10^5 or 1.82×10^7
To multiply two numbers written in scientific notation, you can simply multiply the coefficients and add the exponents.
(2.6 × 10^1) × (7 × 10^4)
Multiplying the coefficients gives: 2.6 × 7 = 18.2
Adding the exponents gives: 10^1 + 10^4 = 10^5
Therefore, the result in scientific notation is: 18.2 × 10^5
