A tape dispenser holds 1.14 * 10 ^ 4 * mm of tape that is 12.7 mm wide Multiply the two numbers to find the total are square millimeters of tape. Write the product in scientific notation (point
The product of the two numbers is:
1.14 * 10^4 * 12.7
To multiply the numbers, you multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:
1.14 * 12.7 = 14.478
Now, for the scientific notation, we need to adjust the decimal point to the right place, so the number is between 1 and 10:
14.478 = 1.4478 * 10^1
Therefore, the total area of square millimeters of tape is 1.4478 * 10^1 square millimeters.
To find the total area of the tape in square millimeters, we need to multiply the length and width of the tape.
Length of tape = 1.14 * 10^4 mm
Width of tape = 12.7 mm
To find the total area, we multiply the length and width:
Total area = Length × Width
Total area = (1.14 * 10^4 mm) × (12.7 mm)
To multiply these two numbers, we can simply multiply the coefficients and add the exponents of 10:
Total area = 1.14 × 12.7 × 10^(4+0) mm^2
Total area = 14.478 × 10^4 mm^2
Now, we can write the product in scientific notation:
Total area = 1.4478 × 10^5 mm^2
To find the total area in square millimeters, you need to multiply the length of the tape by its width.
The length of the tape is given as 1.14 * 10^4 mm, and the width is given as 12.7 mm.
To multiply these two numbers in scientific notation, you can follow these steps:
1. Multiply the numerical values:
1.14 * 12.7 = 14.478
2. Multiply the powers of 10:
10^4 * 10^0 = 10^(4+0) = 10^4
3. Combine the result from step 1 and step 2:
14.478 * 10^4
4. Convert the result to scientific notation:
1.4478 * 10^4
Therefore, the total area of the tape in square millimeters, written in scientific notation, is 1.4478 * 10^4.
