To find the product of the given numbers and express it in scientific notation, follow these steps:
Step 1: Multiply 41 by 4.4
- 41 ร 4.4 = 180.4
Step 2: Multiply the result from Step 1 by 10 to the power of 54.4x10^5
- 180.4 ร 10^(54.4x10^5)
Step 3: Express the result in scientific notation
- A number expressed in scientific notation has the form a x 10^b, where a is a number between 1 and 10, and b is an integer.
To express 180.4 ร 10^(54.4x10^5) in scientific notation, let's convert it to the appropriate form:
Step 4: Divide 180.4 by 10
- 180.4 รท 10 = 18.04
Step 5: Multiply 18.04 by 10 raised to the power of 54.4x10^5
- 18.04 ร 10^(54.4x10^5)
Step 6: Express 18.04 in the form of a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by 10 raised to a certain power (a x 10^b)
- 18.04 can be written as 1.804 ร 10^1
Step 7: Multiply the appropriate powers of 10
- Combining the powers of 10, we get 10^(1 + 54.4x10^5) = 10^(54.4x10^5 + 1)
Step 8: Finally, express the number in scientific notation by multiplying the number (1.804) by the combined powers of 10 from Step 7
- The product of 41 and 4.4 times 10 to the power 54.4x10^5 expressed in scientific notation is: 1.804 ร 10^(54.4x10^5 + 1)
