Understanding Scientific Notation

Scientific notation expresses numbers as a coefficient multiplied by 10 raised to an exponent: \(a \times 10^b\), where \(1 \le |a| < 10\) and \(b\) is an integer.

Multiplication Rule
$$ (a \times 10^m) \times (b \times 10^n) = (a \times b) \times 10^{m+n} $$
Division Rule
$$ (a \times 10^m) \div (b \times 10^n) = \left(\frac{a}{b}\right) \times 10^{m-n} $$
