See the solution process below:

First, rewrite this expression as:

$(6.4 xx 3.8) xx (10^ 2 xx 10^4)$

Now multiply each term separately:

$(6.4 xx 3.8) xx (10^ 2 xx 10^4)$

$24.32 xx (10^(2 + 4))$

$24.32 xx (10^6))$

$2.432 xx (10^7))$

How do you calculate (6.4times10 ^2)times(3.8times10^ 4)(6.4times10 ^2)times(3.8times10^ 4)?
