Evaluate Using Scientific Notation (810^24)/(210^18)

$\frac{8 \cdot 10^{24}}{2 \cdot 10^{18}}$

Step 1

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

$(\frac{8}{2}) (\frac{10^{24}}{10^{18}})$

Step 2

Divide $8$ by $2$ .

$4 \frac{10^{24}}{10^{18}}$

Step 3

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

$4 \cdot 10^{24 + 18 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $18$ by $- 1$ .

$4 \cdot 10^{24 - 18}$

Step 5

Subtract $18$ from $24$ .

$4 \cdot 10^{6}$
