To convert the height from meters to centimeters, we can use the conversion factor that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters.
Given: \[ \text{Height in meters} = 2.307 \times 10^8 \text{ meters} \]
To convert this to centimeters: \[ \text{Height in centimeters} = 2.307 \times 10^8 \text{ meters} \times 100 \text{ centimeters/meter} \]
This simplifies to: \[ \text{Height in centimeters} = 2.307 \times 10^8 \times 10^2 \text{ centimeters} \]
Using the properties of exponents: \[ \text{Height in centimeters} = 2.307 \times 10^{8 + 2} \text{ centimeters} \] \[ \text{Height in centimeters} = 2.307 \times 10^{10} \text{ centimeters} \]
The final answer in scientific notation is: \[ 2.307 \times 10^{10} \text{ centimeters} \]
So the answer in the specified format: (2.307) x (10^10) centimeters
