Answer 1

The answer would be, 245000.

Explanation:

If you should already know, 10 to the power of 5 is 100,000 so you know 1 x 2 is 2 and the rest are 0's, so you just add it.

Answer 2

First you would figure out what 10 to the power of 5 is. 10 to the power of 5 is 100000. Next you would multiply 2.45 and 100,000. Your answer is 245,000.

It is 245,000 because you would move the decimal place on 2.45 to the right twice. Then you would add three 0 at the end.
