3.5 x 10^7 times 7 x 10^6

1 answer

To multiply numbers in scientific notation, you multiply the coefficients (numbers in front of the powers of 10) and then add the exponents of 10.

(3.5 x 10^7) * (7 x 10^6)

Multiply the coefficients:
3.5 * 7 = 24.5

Add the exponents of 10:
10^7 * 10^6 = 10^(7+6) = 10^13

Therefore, the result is 24.5 x 10^13.
