Write the product of (1.7 x 10 to the 9th power) x (1.4 x 10 to the 2nd power) in scientific notation

the answer is 23,800,000,000 which would be 2.38 to the 11th power in scientific notation, so your answer is correct :)

sorry I meant 2.38 x 10 to the 11th power.

ok just making sure

Thank You Victoria!!!!!! :)

you're welcome :)

To find the product of two numbers in scientific notation, you need to multiply the two coefficients and add the exponents. In this case, we multiply 1.7 by 1.4, which equals 2.38. Then, we add the exponents: 9 + 2 = 11.

Therefore, the product of (1.7 x 10^9) x (1.4 x 10^2) in scientific notation is 2.38 x 10^11.

You are correct!
