Sure! If you provide me with the specific numbers you'd like to divide in scientific notation, I can help you work through the problem and also give you the quick check answers. If you're looking for a general method to divide numbers in scientific notation, here's how it's done:
- Write each number in scientific notation: \( a \times 10^m \) and \( b \times 10^n \).
- Divide the coefficients: \( \frac{a}{b} \).
- Subtract the exponents: \( 10^{(m-n)} \).
- Combine the results.
So, the formula for division in scientific notation becomes: \[ \frac{a \times 10^m}{b \times 10^n} = \left(\frac{a}{b}\right) \times 10^{(m-n)} \]
If you give me specific examples, I'll provide quick check answers for those!
