Simplify this expression and put your final answer in Scientific Notation: 2.7*10^5/3.2*10^7. Tell all steps

1 answer

To simplify this expression, we need to divide the numbers and then subtract the exponents:

2.7*10^5 / 3.2*10^7

First divide 2.7 by 3.2: 2.7 / 3.2 = 0.84375

Next, subtract the exponents: 5 - 7 = -2

Therefore, the simplified expression is 0.84375*10^-2

In scientific notation, this can be written as 8.4375*10^-1.
