1. Using addition and subtraction using the powers of ten, solve the following equation:
0.00096-0.000086=
(96)(0.00001) - (8.6) (0.00001)
= 96 ×10-5 - 8.6 × 10 -5
= (96 - 8.6) × 10 -5
= 87.4 × 10-5
2. Using multiplication and the powers of ten, solve the following equation:
= (340,000) (0.00061) =
= (3.4 ×10 5) (61× 10-5)
= (3.4) (61) × (105) (10-5)
=207.4 × 100
=
207.4
3. Using DIVISION and the powers of ten, solve the following equation:
69 × 104 = 69 × 104
13 × 10-8 13 10-8
=5.31 ×1012
4. Using only those powers of ten express the following numbers in what seems to you
the most logical form for future calculations:
(a) 15 × 103
(b) 30 × 10-3
(c) 7.4 × 106
(d) 6.8 × 10-6
(e) 402 × 10-6
(f) 200 × 10-1
5. Perform the following operations and express your answer as a power of ten:
a. 4200 + 6,800,000
4.2 ×103 + 6800 × 103
(4.2 + 6800) × 103
6804.2 × 103
a. 10-1
b. 10-4
c. 109
d. 10-9
e. 1042
f. 103
