$color(purple)(18,000$

$1.80 * 10^4$

$=> 1.80 * 10,000$

$=> (180 / cancel100) * cancel(10,000)^color(red)(100)$

$=> 180 * 100$

$color(purple)(18,000$

$18,000$

$10^4$ is the same as $10*10*10*10$ , which is equal to $10,000$ .

We now have

$1.8*10,000$

We can loop the decimal in $1.8$ four times to the right. We get

$18,000$

Hope this helps!
