Question

Find the sum, difference, product, and quotient of 6 x 10-4 and 1.5 x 10-4. Write your answers in scientific notation. The sum is The difference is The product is The quotient is

Answer 1

The sum is:

`6*10^(-4)+1.5*10^(-4)=7.5*10^(-4)`

The difference is:

`6*10^(-4)-1.5*10^(-4)=4.5*10^(-4)`

The product is:

`(6*10^(-4))(1.5*10^(-4))=9*10^(-8)`

The quotient is:

`(6*10^(-4))/(1.5*10^(-4))=4`
