Solve 2.52*10^4/3.5*10^-2

$$\frac { 2.52 \times 10 ^ { 4 } } { 3.5 \times 10 ^ { - 2 } }$$

Evaluate

$$720000$$

Solution Steps

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

$$\frac{2.52\times 10^{6}}{3.5}$$

Calculate 10 to the power of 6 and get 1000000.

$$\frac{2.52\times 1000000}{3.5}$$

Multiply 2.52 and 1000000 to get 2520000.

$$\frac{2520000}{3.5}$$

Expand \frac{2520000}{3.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$\frac{25200000}{35}$$

Divide 25200000 by 35 to get 720000.

$$720000$$

Factor

$$2^{7}\times 3^{2}\times 5^{4}$$
