Q:

Which equation shows how to find the product of 100,000 and 1,000,000 using scientific notation?A) 100,000 × 1,000,000 = (1 × 10^5) × (1 × 10^6) = 1 × 10^(5 + 6) = 1 × 10^11 B) 100,000 × 1,000,000 = (1 × 10^5) × (1 × 10^6) = 1 × 10^(5 × 6) = 1 × 10^30 C) 100,000 × 1,000,000 = (1 × 10^6) × (1 × 10^7) = 1 × 10^(6 + 7) = 1 × 10^13 D) 100,000 × 1,000,000 = (1 × 10^6) × (1 × 10^7) = 1 × 10^(6 × 7) = 1 × 10^42

Accepted Solution

A:
Your answer is B 100,000 × 1,000,000 = (1 × 10^5) × (1 × 10^6) = 1 × 10^(5 × 6) = 1 × 10^30 because...

100,000=1×10^5
1,000,000=1×10^6

And 5×6=30

Also its not A because 5×6=30 not 11 its not C because 5×6=30 not 13 and when it came down to rather B or D I choose Because once again 5×6=30 no 42.


Basically all of the options are worded correctly but their they didn't multiply it the same at the end which is 5×6


Your answer is B.
