What’s the quotient of 3.496*10^9 and 3.8*10^5 expresses in scientific notation

1 answer

First, divide the coefficients:

3.496 / 3.8 = 0.92105263158

Next, subtract the exponents:

(10^9) / (10^5) = 10^(9-5) = 10^4

Therefore, the quotient in scientific notation is:

0.92105263158 * 10^4 = 9.2105263158 * 10^3
