Answer 1

Answer:

Value of expressions in scientific notation = 15.86 x 10⁻¹⁰

Explanation:

Given expressions:

2.600 x 10⁻⁵ x 6.100 x 10⁻⁵

Find:

Value of expressions in scientific notation

Computation:

2.600 x 10⁻⁵ x 6.100 x 10⁻⁵

2.600 x 6.100 x 10⁻⁵x 10⁻⁵

15.86 x 10⁻⁵ x 10⁻⁵

We know that;

qᵃ x qᵇ = q⁽ᵃ⁺ᵇ⁾

So,

15.86 x 10⁽⁻⁵⁻⁵⁾

15.86 x 10⁽⁻¹⁰⁾

Value of expressions in scientific notation = 15.86 x 10⁻¹⁰
