How do you solve a scientific notation division problem?
Answer:
You turn each scientific notation into decimal numbers and then divide.
For example, 8 times 10 to the 12 power : 2 times 10 to the 10 power.
8000000000000 : 20000000000= 400. (I did this using long division).
OMG! I just realized that you could remove all the zeros from 80000000000000 that 20000000000 has, so being 800 : 2 which gives you the answer 400.
Two ways. But I still wonder, are there any other ways?
