Operations With Scientific Notation Calculator

Scientific Notation Calculator is used to add, subtract, multiply, and divide scientific notation numbers.

What is meant by Scientific notation number?

Scientific notation is used to express large numbers in short form for easiness in calculations reason why the scientific notation method applies because when a number approaches infinity then with the help of scientific notation number it can be written in short form which is easy to understand and solve easily.

For Example

The number “33000000000000000000000000000000” can be written as 3.3 × 10³¹  

How to perform arithmetic operations on Scientific Notation numbers?

Example 1:

Add these scientific notation numbers

2.3 × 10² + 7.2 × 10⁷

Solution

Step 1:

Expanding the scientific notation numbers

= 230 + 72000000

= 72000230

Step 2:

Again, converting into Scientific notation

= 7.200023 x 107

Example 2:

Subtract these scientific notation numbers

5.234 × 10⁴ - 1.2 × 10²

Solution

Step 1:

Expanding the scientific notation numbers

= 52340-120

= 52220

Step 2:

Again, converting into Scientific notation

= 5.222 x 10 4

Example 3:

Multiply these scientific notation numbers

1.1 × 10³ * 1.3 × 10²

Solution

Step 1:

Expanding the scientific notation numbers

= 110*130

=143000

Step 2:

Again, converting into Scientific notation

= 1.43 × 105

Example 4:

Divide these scientific notation numbers

2.1 × 10⁶ ÷ 1.4 × 10⁴

Solution

Step 1:

Expanding the scientific notation numbers

= 2100000 ÷ 14000

= 2100 ÷ 14

= 300 ÷ 2

= 150

Step 2:

Again, converting into Scientific notation

= 1.5 × 102
