What is the scientific notation of 3.3E 12?

3.3e+12 = 3 x 10^12 = 3,300,000,000,000 = 3.3 trillion

How do you you multiply in scientific notation?

Add the exponents and multiply the decimals as for example:-

2.5*10^4 times 3.75*10^3 = 9.375*10^7

How do you turn a number into scientific notation?

Best illustrated with examples (scientific notation on the right):

1) 24578 = 2.4578x104

2) 0.00000345 = 3.45x10-6

3) 2.313 = 2.313x100

4) -49 = -4.9x101

and so on.

=============================

How do you express 10 trillion x 100 billion?

It is: 10,000,000,000,000 times 100,000,000,000 = 1.0*10^24 expressed in scientific notation
