Q. Multiply.\newline(3×105)(3×102)(3 \times 10^5)(3 \times 10^2)\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 9×1079 \times 10^7\newline(B) 5×1085 \times 10^8\newline(C) 9×1089 \times 10^8\newline(D) 5×1075 \times 10^7
  1. Group Coefficients and Powers: We have the expression 3×1053 \times 10^5(33 \times 1010^22\). First, we group the coefficients and power terms together.\newlineCoefficients: 33 and 33\newlinePower terms: 10510^5 and 10210^2
  2. Multiply Coefficients: Multiply the coefficients together.\newline3×3=93 \times 3 = 9
  3. Combine Power Terms: Combine the power terms by adding the exponents, since the base is the same 1010.105×102=10(5+2)=10710^5 \times 10^2 = 10^{(5 + 2)} = 10^7
  4. Write Final Answer: Combine the results from Step 22 and Step 33 to write the final answer in scientific notation.\newlineCoefficient = 99\newlinePower term = 10710^7\newlineScientific notation: 9×1079 \times 10^7
