Use the calculator to find the product. (1.466 × 10–8)(5.02 × 105) what is the coefficient of the product? what is the exponent of the power in the product?

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculator says that the answer is 7.36 * 10^-3.

This has been rounded to the proper number of significant digits. 5.02 has only 3 sig digs.

Coefficient: 7.36

Exponent: - 3

Note your calculator might give you 0.00736 but that is really 7.36 * 10^-3

7.56932 * 10^-3

The coefficient is 7.35932

The exponent is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

When we multiply numbers in scientific notation, we take the numbers out front and multiply

1.466*5.02 =7.56932

Then we add the exponents on the powers of 10

10^(-8+5) = 10^(-3)

The result is 7.56932 * 10^-3

Using a calculator, we get 0.00735932, which is not in scientific notation.  Your question indicates that you want the result in scientific notation

.00735932 changed to scientific notation

Move the decimal until a nonzero digit is to the left of the decimal

7.35932

We moved it 3 places to the left, that means our exponent is -3

7.35932*10^-3

6/20
