Find 0.078 (5.2 10 Express your answer in scientific notation. Do not round your answer

0.078 (5.2 x 10^10) = 4.056 x 10^9

To express the number 0.078 in scientific notation without rounding, we start by moving the decimal point to create a number between 1 and 10.

0.078 can be written as 7.8 x 0.01.

This can be further simplified as 7.8 x 10^(-2).

So, 0.078 in scientific notation is 7.8 x 10^(-2).

To find the product of 0.078 and 5.2, you need to multiply these two numbers together.

0.078 × 5.2 = 0.4056

The product is 0.4056.

To express this answer in scientific notation, you need to convert it to a number between 1 and 10, multiplied by the appropriate power of 10.

To do this, we move the decimal point to the right until we have a single-digit number to the left of the decimal point.

In this case, the decimal point needs to be moved 2 places to the right to get 4.056.

Therefore, the scientific notation of the product is 4.056 × 10^(-1).
