Simplify and enter your answer in scientific notation:

240,000,000*0.000024/0.005

there are 7 zeros in the first number, so it is 24*10^7

there are 4 leading zeros in the next number, so it is .24*10^-4

the denominator is .5*10^-2

Expressing each of those in scientific notation, where the number is between1 and 10, we have

2.4*10^8 * 2.4*10^-5 / 5.0*10^-3
= (2.4*2.4/5.0) * 10^(8-5-(-3))
= 1.152 * 10^6
