Question

what is the quotient of 9.8×10^7 and 7.0×10^4 expressed in scientific notation

Answer 1

The quotient of the given expressions in scientific notation is

1.4 x 10³

Step by Step Explanation

The question given is:

what is the quotient of 9.8×10⁷ and 7.0×10⁴ expressed in scientific notation​?

To solve the above, let us clearly represent its quotient form:

$\frac{9.8\times10^7}{7.0\times10^4}$

Divide the decimal parts and use the law of indices on the exponent part.

That is;

$=1.4\times10^{7-4}$$=1.4\times10^3$
