how do you solve a problem like (1.34*10^8)(4.5*10^6)?
Multiply the number by the number:
1.34 x 4.5 = 6.03 which should be rounded to 6.0 because there are only two siginificant digits in 4.5
Now, multiply the exponent by the exponent:
10^8 x 10^6 = 10^14 (add exponents)
So the answer is: 6.0 x 10^14
Uh oh, I realized I messed up the answer. Pease delete this if it's possible.
