Scientific notation means rewriting a given huge number into a simplified form keeping the first digit of the given number intact and placing a decimal next to the other digits and multiplying the number with its appropriate multiple of 10's (written using exponents).The online tool used to divide the given numbers in scientific notation is called dividing scientific notation calculator.
Example 1: Divide the two scientific numbers 3.2 X 1012 and 1.6 X 109?
The given two numbers are in its scientific forms 3.2 * 1012 and 1.6 * 109 since the numbers are written with respect to the multiples of 10.
Dividing them gives > (3.2 * 1012)/ (1.6 * 109)
Applying the Law of Exponents > 2.0 * 1012-9 = 2.0 * 103
Therefore the answer to the given division is 2.0 * 104
Example 2: Divide the two scientific numbers 8.5 * 1015 and 1.7 * 1010?
The given two numbers are in its scientific forms 8.5 * 1015 and 1.7 * 1010since the numbers are written with respect to the multiples of 10.
Dividing them gives > (8.5 * 1015)/ (1.7 * 1010)
Applying the Law of Exponents > 5.0 * 1015-10 = 5.0 * 105
Therefore the answer to the given division is 5.0 * 105.
