1.4335 × 10v9 x 7.786 × 10v8 show your work

1 answer

To multiply numbers written in scientific notation, you need to multiply the coefficients and add the exponents. Here's how you can calculate it:

(1.4335 × 10^9) × (7.786 × 10^8)

Multiplying the coefficients, we get:

1.4335 × 7.786 = 11.165282

Adding the exponents, we get:

10^9 × 10^8 = 10^(9+8) = 10^17

Therefore, the result is:

11.165282 × 10^17
