Scientific Notation and Decimal Operations

The video tutorial explains how to multiply numbers in scientific notation without a calculator. It covers the commutative property of multiplication, reordering factors, multiplying mantissas, and handling decimal places. The tutorial also explains how to multiply powers of ten by adding exponents and provides examples to illustrate these concepts. Additionally, it discusses converting numbers to scientific notation when the product is not in the correct form, ensuring the mantissa is between 1 and 10.

What is the first step in multiplying numbers in scientific notation?

• Reorder the multiplication

• Subtract the exponents

• Divide the numbers

• Add the exponents
