When multiplying numbers in scientific notation what do you do with the exponent?
Add them
Is scientific numbers and scientific notation the same?
No. Scientific numbers are constants that appear in science. They may or may not require scientific notation.
What is the disadvantage of using scientific notation?
If you are adding or subtracting two numbers in scientific notation, you must rewrite one of the numbers to the same power of ten as the other, before performing the addition (or subtraction).
What are 2 ways of writing numbers?
standard notation and scientific notation For example: 126,000 is standard notation. 1.26X105 is scientific notation.
What is 36 times 10 to the 3 power plus 15 times 10 to the 2 power?
It's best to convert those numbers from scientific notation to normal notation; that makes it easy to add them. After adding them, you can convert back to scientific notation if you want. Another option is to keep the numbers in scientific notation, but to convert them so that both have the same exponent.
