Evaluate (4.010^6)/(2.510^-5)

$\frac{4 \cdot 10^{6}}{2.5 \cdot 10^{- 5}}$

Step 1

Group coefficients together and exponents together to divide numbers in scientific notation.

$(\frac{4}{2.5}) (\frac{10^{6}}{10^{- 5}})$

Step 2

Divide $4$ by $2.5$ .

$1.6 \frac{10^{6}}{10^{- 5}}$

Step 3

Subtract the exponent from the denominator from the exponent of the numerator for the same base

$1.6 \cdot 10^{6 - 5 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $- 5$ by $- 1$ .

$1.6 \cdot 10^{6 + 5}$

Step 5

Add $6$ and $5$ .

$1.6 \cdot 10^{11}$

Step 6

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Scientific Notation:

$1.6 \cdot 10^{11}$

Expanded Form:

$160000000000$
