Question

Express it in scientific notation (1,632) (4.0 x 10⁴) =

Answer 1

Answer of the given multiplication is
`6.5* 10^(7)`

Step-by-step explanation:

For multiplication or division of multiple digits, the final answer should contain equal number of significant figure to that digit containing least number of significant figure.

1632 has four significant figures and
`4.0* 10^(4)` has two significant figures. Hence
`4.0* 10^(4)` has least number of significant figures.

So answer should contain two significant figures.

Hence
`(1632)(4.0* 10^(4))` =
`6.5* 10^(7)`

Answer 2

(1632)*(4.0*10^ 4) = 6.528*10^7
