Evaluate Using Scientific Notation (910^9)/(410^5)

$\frac{9 \cdot 10^{9}}{4 \cdot 10^{5}}$

Step 1

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

$(\frac{9}{4}) (\frac{10^{9}}{10^{5}})$

Step 2

Divide $9$ by $4$ .

$2.25 \frac{10^{9}}{10^{5}}$

Step 3

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

$2.25 \cdot 10^{9 + 5 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $5$ by $- 1$ .

$2.25 \cdot 10^{9 - 5}$

Step 5

Subtract $5$ from $9$ .

$2.25 \cdot 10^{4}$
