Full solution

Q. Simplify. Your answer should be in proper scientific notation:\newline0.05(9×108) 0.05\left(9 \times 10^{8}\right)
  1. Multiply Decimal by Number: To simplify the expression 0.05(9×108)0.05(9\times10^8), we first multiply the decimal 0.050.05 by the number 99. \newline0.05×9=0.450.05 \times 9 = 0.45
  2. Adjust to Scientific Notation: Now we need to combine the result with the power of 1010. Since 0.450.45 is not in scientific notation, we need to adjust it to put it in the correct form.\newline0.450.45 can be written as 4.5×1014.5 \times 10^{-1} because we are moving the decimal point one place to the right to get a number between 11 and 1010.
  3. Multiply by Power of 1010: Next, we multiply 4.5×1014.5 \times 10^{-1} by 10810^8. When multiplying powers of 1010, we add the exponents.\newline4.5×101×108=4.5×101+8=4.5×1074.5 \times 10^{-1} \times 10^8 = 4.5 \times 10^{-1+8} = 4.5 \times 10^7
  4. Final Scientific Notation: The expression is now in proper scientific notation.
