Evaluate Using Scientific Notation (8.910^8)/(3.310^4)

$\frac{(8.9 \cdot 10^{8})}{(3.3 \cdot 10^{4})}$

Step 1

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

$(\frac{8.9}{3.3}) (\frac{10^{8}}{10^{4}})$

Step 2

Divide $8.9$ by $3.3$ .

$2.\overline{69} \frac{10^{8}}{10^{4}}$

Step 3

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

$2.\overline{69} \cdot 10^{8 + 4 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $4$ by $- 1$ .

$2.\overline{69} \cdot 10^{8 - 4}$

Step 5

Subtract $4$ from $8$ .

$2.\overline{69} \cdot 10^{4}$
