Operations with ScientificNotation • Quick review • Product rule • Quotient rule • Power rule
Operations with ScientificNotation • Give an example of a number in scientific notation. • Give an example of a number in standard notation.
Operations with ScientificNotation • Option 1 • Turn each scientific notation into standard notation • Add or subtract • The turn your answer back into scientific notation
Operations with ScientificNotation • Another way to add or subtract numbers in scientific notation is to change them to standard notation, add or subtract and then change back to scientific notation.
Operations with ScientificNotation • Option 2 • Write each with the same power of 10. • Add or subtract • Keep your answer in scientific notation
Operations with ScientificNotation • When adding or subtraction numbers written in scientific notation you may have to find the common power of 10. • To find the common exponent you may need to move the decimal point the required number of places in each multiplier to change the exponent. • The number may no longer be in scientific notation.
Operations with ScientificNotation • Multiply or divided the multipliers • To multiply or divide remember to use the product rule or the quotient rule. • Make sure your answer is in scientific notation
Operations with ScientificNotation • Another way to multiply or divide numbers in scientific notation is to change them to standard notation, multiply or divide and then change back to scientific notation.
