105. 9 * 103 = 6900 34 Chapter 2 • Fractions and decimals Both are accurate to the nearest hundred so we do not need to round the difference which also has this accuracy (505 700). 1, when multiplying and dividing numbers expressed using scientific notation. 4 : 104 and express the answer in scientific notation. 4 * 106 As you can see, we applied the first law of indices here. Both numbers that are multiplied contain 2 significant figures and so does the product. No rounding of the product is therefore necessary.
45 * 104 There may be instances where the exponent is not the same in the numbers we add or subtract, as shown in the next example. 9 : 103. Solution In order to be able to carry out the subtraction of the numbers in scientific notation, we need to have the same powers of 10 present in both. e. 105. 9 * 103 = 6900 34 Chapter 2 • Fractions and decimals Both are accurate to the nearest hundred so we do not need to round the difference which also has this accuracy (505 700). 1, when multiplying and dividing numbers expressed using scientific notation.
It is easy to see 8 that the highest common factor of 8 and 12 is 4 and the fraction 12 can be simplified to 23 by dividing both its numerator and denominator by 4. It is not always so straightforward to identify the highest common factor for two numbers in order to simplify a fraction, as we will see in the next worked example. 1 42 in its simplest form. Express 105 Solution To find the highest common factor of 42 and 105, a systematic approach needs to be used which involves their prime factorisation.
