Evaluate Using Scientific Notation (2.410^11)/(510^-6)

$\frac{2.4 \cdot 10^{11}}{5 \cdot 10^{- 6}}$

Divide using scientific notation.

Group coefficients together and exponents together to divide numbers in scientific notation.

$(\frac{2.4}{5}) (\frac{10^{11}}{10^{- 6}})$

Divide $2.4$ by $5$ .

$0.48 \frac{10^{11}}{10^{- 6}}$

Subtract the exponent from the denominator from the exponent of the numerator for the same base

$0.48 \cdot 10^{11 - 6 \cdot - 1}$

Multiply $- 6$ by $- 1$ .

$0.48 \cdot 10^{11 + 6}$

Add $11$ and $6$ .

$0.48 \cdot 10^{17}$

Write $0.48 \cdot 10^{17}$ in proper scientific notation.

$4.8 \cdot 10^{16}$
