For this case we have the following multiplication:
[tex] (3.25 * 10 ^ 5) (1.82 * 10 ^ 3)
[/tex]
Rewriting the product we have:
[tex] (3.25 * 1.82) (10 ^ 5 * 10 ^ 3)
[/tex]
By definition we have to:
In multiplication, if we have the same base we add the exponents.
We have then:
[tex] (5.915) (10 ^ {(5 + 3)})
(5.915) (10 ^ 8)
[/tex]
Answer:
The exponent of 10 in the product will be:
8
