For this case we have the following product:
[tex] 34000 * 96000
[/tex]
We can rewrite both numbers using scientific notation.
We have then:
[tex] (3,4 * 10 ^ 4) * (9,6 * 10 ^ 4)
[/tex]
Then, we can rewrite the expression as follows:
[tex] (3,4 * 9,6) * (10 ^ 4 * 10 ^ 4)
[/tex]
Same basis, the exponents are added:
[tex] (3,4 * 9,6) * 10 ^ 8
[/tex]
Multiplying the expression within the parenthesis we have:
[tex] (32.64) * 10 ^ 8
[/tex]
Rewriting the left term as scientific notation we have:
[tex] (3,264 * 10 ^ 1) * 10 ^ 8
[/tex]
Finally we have:
[tex] 3,264 * 10 ^ 9 [/tex]
Answer:
the correct expression of 34,000 x 96,000 using scientific notation is:
[tex] 3,264 * 10 ^ 9 [/tex]
