Question

1.95 x 10^6 8.03 x 10^-8
divide the numbers above

Answer 1

To divide the numbers \(1.95 \times 10^6\) and \(8.03 \times 10^{-8}\), you can divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents of 10.

Here are the steps:

1. **Divide the coefficients**:
\[
\frac{1.95}{8.03} \approx 0.243
\]

2. **Subtract the exponents**:
\[
10^{6 - (-8)} = 10^{6 + 8} = 10^{14}
\]

3. **Combine the results**:
\[
0.243 \times 10^{14}
\]

To express this in proper scientific notation, shift the decimal point:
\[
2.43 \times 10^{13}
\]

Thus, the result of the division is:
\[
\boxed{2.43 \times 10^{13}}
\]
