Chapter 7.3, Problem 15CYU

To determine

The quotient of the given terms.

Answer to Problem 15CYU

  $\begin{array}{l}0.45\times {10}^4\\ 4500\end{array}$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given terms are:

  $\frac{\left(1.035\times {10}^8\right)}{\left(2.3\times {10}^4\right)}$

Calculation:

The quotient can be calculated as:

  $\begin{array}{l}=\frac{\left(1.035\times {10}^8\right)}{\left(2.3\times {10}^4\right)}\\ =\frac{1.035}{2.3}\times {10}^{8-4}\\ =0.45\times {10}^4\\ =\frac{45}{100}\times {10}^4\\ =4500\end{array}$
