Kevin calculated the product of 3.2 × 104 and 3.6 × 102 as 11.52 × 106. which is the next step that kevin should apply to his solution?

The next thing Kevin should do is to write the result in standard form

Scientific notations

The standard form of scientific notation is expressed as where:

A is between 1 and 10n is an integer

Given the product of 3.2 × 10^4 and 3.6 × 10^2 as 11.52 × 10^6, the next thing Kevin should do is to write the result in standard form as shown:

Let's rewrite the numbers correctly:
 3.2 × 10 ^ 4
 3.6 × 10 ^ 2
 Now let's do the multiplication step by step:
 Step 1:
 The step Kevin made:
 (3.2 * 3.6) * ((10 ^ 4) * (10 ^ 2))
 11.52 * (10 ^ (4 + 2))
 11.52 * 10 ^ 6
 Step 2:
 Rewrite the expression:
 11.52 * 1000000
 Step 3:
 Roll the comma to the right:
 11520000
 
 the next step that Kevin should apply to his solution is: 
 Step 2:
 Rewrite the expression:
 11.52 * 1000000
 Step 3:
 Roll the comma to the right:
 11520000
