4 and 6 divide it in scientific notation

1 answer

To divide 4 by 6 in scientific notation, we can write it as:

4 / 6 = 4.0 x 10^0 / 6.0 x 10^0

Since the bases of the numbers are the same (both are 10), we can divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

4.0 x 10^0 / 6.0 x 10^0 = (4.0 / 6.0) x 10^(0-0) = 0.6667 x 10^0

Simplifying further, we can remove the exponent of 10, since any number raised to the power of 0 is 1:

0.6667 x 10^0 = 0.6667 x 1 = 0.6667

Therefore, 4 divided by 6 in scientific notation is approximately 0.6667.
