Answer:
[tex]1.8 \text{ x } 10^5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
To multiply terms, we multiply the like terms.
Like terms:
Like terms are terms with the same degree or base. In this example, 1 and 1.8 are like terms by degree, and 10² and 10³ are like by base.
Multiply:
- (1 x 10²)(1.8 x 10³)
- (1 x 1.8)(10² x 10³) --> exponeent rule: a^b * a^c = a^(b+c)
- 1.8 x 10^5
That's your solution! 1.8 x 10^5
