Knowledge

Scientific notation is a way of expressing numbers that are too large or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form.

In scientific notation, nonzero numbers are written in the form:

Number10ⁿ

Given two number in scientific notation, multiplication and division are performed using the rules:

x₁ = m₁10^n₁

x₂ = m₂10^n₂

x₁x₂ = m₁m₂10^n₁+n₂

x₁ x₂ = m₁ m₂ 10^n₁-n₂

6.6710^-69.6510⁸ ≈ 64.410^-6+8 = 6.4410³

6.6710^-6 9.6510⁸ ≈ 0.6910^-6-8 = 6.910^-15
