Simplify and express in scientific notation (14 x 104) (76 x 10 - 3)

(25 x 10 - 2)

Step 1 Use the commutative property of multiplication to simplify the numerator

This helps you put like numbers together (14 x 104) (76 x 10-3

) = (14 x 76) (104 x 10-3)

Step 2 Use the product of powers property 104 x 10- 3 = 10(4 + -3) = 101

Multiply the decimals as you normally would (14 x 76) x (104 x 10- 3

) = 1064 x 101

Step 3 Use the quotient of powers property to simplify the fraction

Wi --- 10-2 = 10(1 - - 2) = 103

Divide the decimals as you normally would

1064 x 101 = 4256 X 103 225 X 10 shy

(14 X 104) (76 x 10 ~ 3) = 4256 X 103
