  1. 1)

    (5 x 10^-5) x (11 x 10^4)

    = (5 x 11)(10^-5 x 10^4)

    = 55[10^(-5 + 4)]

    = 55[10^-1]

    = 55 x 10^-1

    = 5.5 x 10^(-1 + 1)

    = 5.5 x 10^0

    2)

    0.06457

    = 6.457 x 0.01

    = 6.457 x 1/10^2

    = 6.457 x 10^-2

    3)

    (13.2 x 10^-4) + (3.44 x 10^-4)

    = 10^-4(13.2 + 3.44)

    = (1/10000)(16.64)

    = 16.64/10000

    = 0.001664
