Multiply 5(6.7×10−7) = 33.5×10−7=3.35×10−6
kg
Multiply 5(6.7×10−7) = 33.5×10−7=3.35×10−6
kg

Divide 5,000,0006.7×10−7=5×1066.7×10−7=(56.7)×106+(−7)=0.74×10−1=0.074

Divide the fraction with numerator 5 comma 000 comma 000 and denominator 6 point 7 times 10 to the negative 7 power is equal to the fraction with numerator 5 times 10 to the 6th power and denominator 6 point 7 times 10 to the negative 7 power is equal to open paren 5 over 6 point 7 close paren times 10 raised to the 6 plus negative 7 power is equal to 0 point 7 4 times 10 inverse is equal to 0 point 0 7 4 kg

Multiply 5,000,000(6.7×10−7)=(5×106)⋅(6.7×10−7)=(5⋅6.7)(106+7)=33.5×1013=3.35×1014

Multiply 5 comma 000 comma 000 times open paren 6 point 7 times 10 to the negative 7 power close paren is equal to open paren 5 times 10 to the 6th power close paren times open paren 6 point 7 times 10 to the negative 7 power close paren is equal to open paren 5 times 6 point 7 close paren times open paren 10 raised to the 6 plus 7 power close paren is equal to 33 point 5 times 10 to the 13th power is equal to 3 point 3 5 times 10 to the 14th power kg

Multiply 5,000,000(6.7×10−7)=(5×106)⋅(6.7×10−7)=(5⋅6.7)(106+(−7))=33.5×10−1=3.35

The correct answer is:

Multiply 5(6.7×10−7) = 33.5×10−7=3.35×10−6 kg

The Thai Pepper has a hotness rating of 7.5×104

on the Scoville scale.

The Red Savina Habanero has a hotness rating of 4.6×105
on the Scoville scale.

How many times hotter is the Red Savina Habanero than the Thai Pepper?

Divide (7.5×104)(4.6×105)=7.54.6×104−5=1.63×101=16.3
times hotter
Divide (7.5×104)(4.6×105)=7.54.6×104−5=1.63×101=16.3
times hotter

Multiply (7.5×104)⋅(4.6×105)=(7.5×4.6)⋅(104⋅5)=34.5×1020=3.45×1021
Multiply open paren 7 point 5 times 10 to the 4th power close paren times open paren 4 point 6 times 10 to the 5th power close paren is equal to open paren 7 point 5 times 4 point 6 close paren times open paren 10 raised to the 4 times 5 power close paren is equal to 34 point 5 times 10 to the 20th power is equal to 3 point 4 5 times 10 to the 21th power

Divide (4.6×105)(7.5×104)=4.67.5×105−4=0.613×101=6.13
times hotter
Divide (4.6×105)(7.5×104)=4.67.5×105−4=0.613×101=6.13
times hotter

Multiply (7.5×104)⋅(4.6×105)=(7.5×4.6)⋅(104+5)=34.5×109=3.45×1010
times hotter

The correct answer is:

Divide (4.6×105)(7.5×104)=4.67.5×105−4=0.613×101=6.13
times hotter

Mercury is 5.8×107

Divide the distances: 4.5×10105.8×107=0.78×103 =7.8×102
km
Divide the distances: 4.5×10105.8×107=0.78×103 =7.8×102
km

Subtract the distances by getting the same power of 10: (4.5×1010)−(5.8×107) =(4.5×1010)−(0.0058×1010)=4.49×1010

Add the distances together: (5.8×107)+(4.5×1010) = 10.3×1017=1.03×1018
km

Multiply the distances: (5.8×107)⋅(4.5×1010) = (5.8×4.5)⋅(107+10)=26.1×1017=2.61×10

The correct answer is:

When adding and subtracting numbers in Scientific Notation, the powers of the base 10 must be the same exponent so that you have "like terms".

When multiplying and dividing numbers in Scientific Notation, you do not have to have the same power of the base 10. You can simply follow the exponent rules for multiplying and dividing with the like base 10.
