Which is the quotient of (2.981 x 10 20 ) / (3.25 x 10 3 ) in scientific notation?

(2.981 x 10^20) / (3.25 x 10^3)=9.172  x  10^16

Good Morning Guest!

Which is the quotient of (2.981 x 1020) / (3.25 x 103) in scientific notation?

\(= \frac{2.981 \times 1.020E3}{3.25\times 0.103E3} \) 

\(= \frac{2.981 \times 1.020}{3.25\times 0.103}\) 

\(= 9.08325616131\) 

Was that what you meant?

 (2.981 x 10^20) / (3.25 x 10^3)

= 2.981/3.25      *     10^(20-3)

= 0.91723 *10^17

=9.1723 * 10^-1    * 10^17

=9.1723  * 10^16

\(\dfrac{2.981 \times 10^{20}}{3.25\times 10^3}\\=\dfrac{29.81\times10^{19}}{3.25\times10^3}\\=\dfrac{29.81}{3.25}\times\dfrac{10^{19}}{10^3}\\= \dfrac{2981}{325}\times 10^{16}\\\approx 9.1723\times 10^{16}\)
