Scientific notation expresses a
number in the form:

IF the exponents are
the same, we simply
add or subtract the
numbers in front and
bring the exponent
down unchanged.

If the exponents are
NOT the same, we
must move a decimal
to make them the

Addition and subtraction
Scientific Notation
1. Make exponents of 10 the same
2. Add 0.2 + 3 and keep the 103 intact
The key to adding or subtracting numbers
in Scientific Notation is to make sure the
exponents are the same.
2.0 x 107 - 6.3 x 105
2.0 x 107 -.063 x 107
= 2.0-.063 x 107
= 1.937 x 107
1. Make exponents of 10 the same
2. Subtract 2.0 - .063 and
keep the 107 intact

MULTIPLYING AND DIVIDING
Rule for Multiplication
When multiplying with scientific notation:
1.Multiply the coefficients together.
2.Add the exponents.
3.The base will remain 10.
(2 x 103) • (3 x 105) =
6 x 108
(9.2
x 105) x (2.3 x 107) =
21.16 x 1012 =
2.116 x 1013
(3.2 x 10-5) x (1.5 x 10-3) =
4.8 • 10-8
Rule for Division
When dividing with scientific notation
1.Divide the coefficients
2.Subtract the exponents.
3.The base will remain 10.

= 7.75 x 10 – 9
(8 • 106) ÷ (2 • 103) =
4 x 103
(3.402 x 105) ÷ (6.3 x 107) =
0.54 x 10-2
Please multiply the following numbers.
(5.76 x 102) x (4.55 x 10-4) =
(3 x 105) x (7 x 104) =
(5.63 x 108) x (2 x 100) =
(4.55 x 10-14) x (3.77 x 1011) =
(8.2 x10-6) x (9.4 x 10-3) =
Please multiply the following numbers.
(5.76 x 102) x (4.55 x 10-4) = 2.62 x 10-1
(3 x 105) x (7 x 104) = 2.1 x 1010
(5.63 x 108) x (2 x 100) = 1.13 x 109
(4.55 x 10-14) x (3.77 x 1011) = 1.72 x 10-2
(8.2 x10-6) x (9.4 x 10-3) = 7.71 x 10-8
Please divide the following numbers.
1. (5.76 x 102) / (4.55 x 10-4) =
2. (3 x 105) / (7 x 104) =
3. (5.63 x 108) / (2) =
4. (8.2 x 10-6) / (9.4 x 10-3) =
5. (4.55 x 10-14) / (3.77 x 1011) =
Please divide the following numbers.
1. (5.76 x 102) / (4.55 x 10-4) = 1.27 x 106
2. (3 x 105) / (7 x 104) = 4.3 x 100 = 4.3
3. (5.63 x 108) / (2 x 100) = 2.82 x 108
4. (8.2 x 10-6) / (9.4 x 10-3) = 8.7 x 10-4
5. (4.55 x 10-14) / (3.77 x 1011) = 1.2 x 10-25

Why do we use it?
It’s a shorthand way of writing very large or very
small numbers used in science and math and
anywhere we have to work with very large or very
small numbers.
