Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given the expression (4×105)(×106)3\frac{\left(4 \times10^{-5}\right)^{}}{\left( \times10^{6}\right)^{3}}. . We need to simplify this expression.

STEP 2

First, let's simplify the numerator and the denominator separately.In the numerator, we have (4×105)2\left(4 \times10^{-5}\right)^{2}.To simplify this, we can use the rule (ab)2=a2×b2(ab)^2 = a^2 \times b^2.
(4×105)2=42×(105)2\left(4 \times10^{-5}\right)^{2} =4^2 \times \left(10^{-5}\right)^2

STEP 3

Now, calculate the value of 2^2 and (105)2\left(10^{-5}\right)^2.
2=16^2 =16(105)2=1010\left(10^{-5}\right)^2 =10^{-10}So, (×105)2=16×1010\left( \times10^{-5}\right)^{2} =16 \times10^{-10}.

STEP 4

Next, let's simplify the denominator, which is (2×106)3\left(2 \times10^{6}\right)^{3}.
Again, we can use the rule (ab)n=an×bn(ab)^n = a^n \times b^n.
(2×106)3=23×(106)3\left(2 \times10^{6}\right)^{3} =2^3 \times \left(10^{6}\right)^3

STEP 5

Now, calculate the value of 232^3 and (10)3\left(10^{}\right)^3.
23=82^3 =8(10)3=1018\left(10^{}\right)^3 =10^{18}So, (2×10)3=8×1018\left(2 \times10^{}\right)^{3} =8 \times10^{18}.

STEP 6

Now, substitute the simplified numerator and denominator back into the original expression.
(4×105)2(2×106)3=16×10108×1018\frac{\left(4 \times10^{-5}\right)^{2}}{\left(2 \times10^{6}\right)^{3}} = \frac{16 \times10^{-10}}{8 \times10^{18}}

STEP 7

We can simplify this further by dividing the coefficients (16 and) and subtracting the exponents of10 (-10 and18).
16×1010×1018=2×1028\frac{16 \times10^{-10}}{ \times10^{18}} =2 \times10^{-28}So, (4×105)2(2×106)3=2×1028\frac{\left(4 \times10^{-5}\right)^{2}}{\left(2 \times10^{6}\right)^{3}} =2 \times10^{-28}.
