Full solution

Q. Multiply. Write your answer in scientific notation.\newline(2×103)(2×102)(2 \times 10^3)(2 \times 10^2)\newline______
  1. Group Coefficients and Powers: We have the expression (2×103)(2×102)(2 \times 10^3)(2 \times 10^2). First, we need to group the coefficients and the power terms together.\newlineCoefficients: 22 and 22\newlinePower terms: 10310^3 and 10210^2
  2. Multiply Coefficients: Multiply the coefficients together. What is 2×22 \times 2?\newline2×2=42 \times 2 = 4
  3. Combine Power Terms: Combine the power terms 103×10210^3 \times 10^2 into a single power of 1010. When multiplying powers with the same base, we add the exponents.\newline103×102=103+2=10510^3 \times 10^2 = 10^{3 + 2} = 10^5
  4. Write in Scientific Notation: We have found the coefficient to be 44 and the power term to be 10510^5. Now, we write the final answer in scientific notation by substituting 44 for the coefficient aa and 55 for the exponent bb in the form a×10ba \times 10^b.\newlineScientific notation: 4×1054 \times 10^5
