solve multiply. Write the result in scientific notion. show me how
(2.3*10^1)(7*10^6)
To solve this multiplication problem and write the result in scientific notation, we can use the following steps:
Step 1: Multiply the coefficients (the numerical parts of the numbers):
2.3 x 7 = 16.1
Step 2: Add the exponents (the powers of 10):
10^1 x 10^6 = 10^(1+6) = 10^7
Step 3: Write the result in scientific notation, with the coefficient between 1 and 10 and the exponent as a power of 10:
16.1 x 10^7
Therefore, the solution in scientific notation is 1.61 x 10^8.
