Solve -2*7.3*10^-2*1/10^3*9.8

$$\frac { - 2 \times 7.3 \times 10 ^ { - 2 } \times 1 } { 10 ^ { 3 } \times 9.8 }$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{73}{4900000}\approx -0.000014898$$

Solution Steps

To divide powers of the same base, subtract the numerator's exponent from the denominator's exponent.

$$\frac{-2\times 7.3}{9.8\times 10^{5}}$$

Multiply -2 and 7.3 to get -14.6.

$$\frac{-14.6}{9.8\times 10^{5}}$$

Calculate 10 to the power of 5 and get 100000.

$$\frac{-14.6}{9.8\times 100000}$$

Multiply 9.8 and 100000 to get 980000.

$$\frac{-14.6}{980000}$$

Expand \frac{-14.6}{980000} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$\frac{-146}{9800000}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-146}{9800000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$-\frac{73}{4900000}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{73}{4900000} = -1.4897959183673468 \times 10^{-5}$$
