Review:
Scientific notation expresses a
number in the form:

between 1
and 10

+ _______________
3 x 10
7 x 106
IF the exponents are
the same, we simply
add or subtract the
numbers in front and
bring the exponent
down unchanged.
106
4 x
+ 3 x 105
If the exponents are
NOT the same, we
must move a decimal
to make them the
same.
Determine which of the numbers has the smaller exponent.
1. Change this number by moving the decimal place to the
left and raising the exponent, until the exponents of both
numbers agree. Note that this will take the lesser number
out of standard form.
2. Add or subtract the coefficients as needed to get the new
coefficient.
3. The exponent will be the exponent that both numbers
share.
4. Put the number in standard form.

MULTIPLYING AND DIVIDING
Rule for Multiplication
When multiplying with scientific notation:
1.Multiply the coefficients together.
2.Add the exponents.
3.The base will remain 10.
(2 x 103) • (3 x 105) =
6 x 108
(4.6x108) (5.8x106) =26.68x1014
Notice: What is wrong with this example?
Although the answer is correct, the
number is not in scientific notation.
To finish the problem, move the decimal one
space left and increase the exponent by
one.
26.68x1014 = 2.668x1015
((9.2
x 105) x (2.3 x 107) =
21.16 x 1012 =
2.116 x 1013
(3.2 x 10-5) x (1.5 x 10-3) =
4.8 • 10-8
Rule for Division
When dividing with scientific notation
1.Divide the coefficients
2.Subtract the exponents.
3.The base will remain 10.
(8 • 106) ÷ (2 • 103) =
4 x 103
Please multiply the following numbers.
(5.76 x 102) x (4.55 x 10-4) =
(3 x 105) x (7 x 104) =
(5.63 x 108) x (2 x 100) =
(4.55 x 10-14) x (3.77 x 1011) =
(8.2 x10-6) x (9.4 x 10-3) =
Please multiply the following numbers.
(5.76 x 102) x (4.55 x 10-4) = 2.62 x 10-1
(3 x 105) x (7 x 104) = 2.1 x 1010
(5.63 x 108) x (2 x 100) = 1.13 x 109
(4.55 x 10-14) x (3.77 x 1011) = 1.72 x 10-2
(8.2 x10-6) x (9.4 x 10-3) = 7.71 x 10-8
Please divide the following numbers.
1. (5.76 x 102) / (4.55 x 10-4) =
2. (3 x 105) / (7 x 104) =
3. (5.63 x 108) / (2) =
4. (8.2 x 10-6) / (9.4 x 10-3) =
5. (4.55 x 10-14) / (3.77 x 1011) =
Please divide the following numbers.
1. (5.76 x 102) / (4.55 x 10-4) = 1.27 x 106
2. (3 x 105) / (7 x 104) = 4.3 x 100 = 4.3
3. (5.63 x 108) / (2 x 100) = 2.82 x 108
4. (8.2 x 10-6) / (9.4 x 10-3) = 8.7 x 10-4
5. (4.55 x 10-14) / (3.77 x 1011) = 1.2 x 10-25

Answer in Scientific
Notation
A number expressed in scientific notation is
expressed as a decimal number between 1 and 10
multiplied by a power of 10 e( g, 7000 = 7 x 103 or
0.0000019 = 1.9 x 10 -6)
Why do we use it?
It’s a shorthand way of writing very large or very
small numbers used in science and math and
anywhere we have to work with very large or very
small numbers.
2.0 x 10 2 + 3.0 x 103

Addition and subtraction
Scientific Notation
1. Make exponents of 10 the same
2. Add 0.2 + 3 and keep the 103 intact
The key to adding or subtracting numbers
in Scientific Notation is to make sure the
exponents are the same.
2.0 x 10 7 - 6.3 x 105
2.0 x 10 7 -.063 x 10 7
= 2.0-.063 x 10 7
= 1.937 x 10 7
1. Make exponents of 10 the same
2. Subtract 2.0 - .063 and
keep the 107 intact
