Evaluate Using Scientific Notation (9.610^9)/(3.210^7)

$\frac{9.6 \cdot 10^{9}}{3.2 \cdot 10^{7}}$

Step 1

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

$(\frac{9.6}{3.2}) (\frac{10^{9}}{10^{7}})$

Step 2

Divide $9.6$ by $3.2$ .

$3 \frac{10^{9}}{10^{7}}$

Step 3

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

$3 \cdot 10^{9 + 7 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $7$ by $- 1$ .

$3 \cdot 10^{9 - 7}$

Step 5

Subtract $7$ from $9$ .

$3 \cdot 10^{2}$
