Math Problem Statement
Work out the value of (4.53 × 10^(-9)) ÷ (7.5 × 10^(-8)). Give your answer in standard form.
Solution
We are given the expression:
Let's break it down step by step:
Step 1: Divide the coefficients
Step 2: Divide the powers of 10
Using the rule of exponents :
Step 3: Combine the results
Now, multiplying the results from the two steps:
Thus, the answer in standard form is:

Here are five related questions to deepen your understanding:
- How would you divide numbers in standard form with negative exponents?
- Can you multiply numbers in standard form and compare the process?
- What happens if you divide two numbers with the same power of 10?
- How can you simplify expressions involving scientific notation?
- How does changing the coefficient affect the result in standard form?
Tip: Always remember that when dividing powers of 10, you subtract the exponents.
