which expression represents the quotient of 8.5 X10^10 and 2.3 x 10^7 please work show so I can understand !! :D
[8.5 x 10^10 ] ÷ [2.3 x 10^7 ]
Notice that this is really the same as this :
[ 8.5 ÷ 2.3 ] x [ 10^10 ÷ 10^7 ] =
[3.6956521739130435] x [ 10^10 / 10^7 ]
And we have the exponential property that says that, a^n / a^m = a^(n - m).....so
10^10 - 10^7 = 10^(10-7) = 10^3
So.....we finally have
3.6956521739130435 x 10^3
And that's it !!!
