6. Yvonne is asked to find the product of two numbers written in


scientific notation:

(2.8 × 104)(4.46 × 10−6)

6. Danny and Deacon are working on finding the quotient below. Danny
decides to multiply out the numerator and gets 10,000 for the powers of 10
portion. Then he divides it by 0.00061 to get 16,393,442.6 or 1.63934426 × 107.
Deacon decides he wants to divide, so he divides each number by 0.00061
and gets 819,672,131 and 32.78689852. Then he multiplies those numbers to
get 2.68745 × 1010. Why are the answers different? Who is correct?

(5 × 105)(2 × 10−2)
6.1 × 10−4
