Find the product of 21 and (6.3 · 10^-4).
A) 0.1323 · 10^-1
B) 1.323 · 10^-3
C) 1.323 · 10^-2
D) 1.323 · 10^2

Respuesta :

To multiply numbers in standard form, we first multiply the numbers and then simplify them to standard form

To find the product of

21 and 6.3 × [tex] 10^{-4}  [/tex]

We shall first multiply

21 & 6.3

We get 21 × 6.3 = 132.3

Now converting this to a standard form we get

1.323 × [tex] 10^2 [/tex]

Product of 21 & 6.3 ×[tex] 10^{-4}  [/tex]

= 1.323 × [tex] 10^2 [/tex] × [tex] 10^{-4} [/tex]

=1.323 × [tex] 10^{-2} [/tex]

Option C) is the right answer
