Operations With Scientific Notation Foldable

OperationswithScientificNotationFoldable

Thank you for purchasing this product. It includes 2 differentfoldable for operations with scientific notation. You can decidewhich foldable works better in your class, and include differentexamples or modify the steps.Page 3 and 4 show the notes I use in my classroom (samenotes can be written in the square foldable).Page 5 and 6 provide the steps and students write down theexamples. In my classroom students use colored pens orhighlighters. It helps them organize the information andremember the steps.Page 7 and 8 is a blank copy.Page 9 and 10 is the square foldable.Printing instructions: Select the foldable you want to use inyour class. Print it front to back or print it and copy it front toback.

Multiplying withScientific Notation1. Multiply the decimalnumbers.2. Add exponents.3. Make sure you haveone digit (non zero) infront of the decimal.*Adding withScientific Notation1. Make sure thatexponents of bothnumbers are the same.*2. Add decimals, don’tforget to line up thedecimal points. Keepexponents the same.3. Make sure you haveone digit (non zero) infront of the decimal.*Example:(3.7 x 10 6 ) x (6.2 x 10 4 )Example:(1.2 x 10 8 ) (2.4 x 10 3 )Step 1: 3.7 x 6.2 22.94Step 2: 6 4 10Step 1: 1.2 2.4 0.5Step 2: 8 - 3 5Step 3: 22.94 x 10 10 1Step 3:0.5 x 10 5 -1112.294 x 104* To change the exponent count how many timesyou need to move the decimal, if you movedecimal forward add that number to theexponents, if you move the decimal backsubtract that number from the exponent.Example:(9.7 x 10 6 ) (5.4 x 10 4 )Example:(1.7 x 10 8 ) – (7.2 x 10 7 )Step 1:6-249.7 x 10 970.0 x 10Step 1:8-171.7 x 10 17.0 x 10Change 6 to 4 by movingdecimal back 2 places.Step 2:970.0 x 10 4 5.4 x 10 4975.4 x 10 4Step 3: 975.4 x 10 4 2 2014 Anna Bovio5 x 109.754 x 106Change 8 to 7 by movingdecimal back 1 place.7Step 2:17.0 x 107.2 x 1079.8 x 107Step 3: only one digit infront of the decimal.9.8 x 10 7Dividing withScientific Notation1.
