8 to the power of 10 is divided into 2 and multiplied by 2 to the power 10. What's the answer??
+23254 A calculator will give you a decimal approximation: 5.5 x 10^11.
If you need an exact answer: rewrite 8 as 2³
Then 8 to the power of 10 becomes (2³)^10 = 2^30 (multiply exponent times exponent.
Now you have: [2^30 / 2] x 2^10
2^30 / 2 becomes 2^29 (subtrating exponents)
and 2^29 x 2^10 = 2^39 (adding exponenst)
