Using scientific notation in calculations, part 2 (8th grade math)

Here in this second part, I first show an example of ADDING vs. MULTIPLYING two numbers that are written in scientific notation. We will also go through an example where the two numbers have negative exponents. Lastly, we get to space again. I calculate the difference between the diameters of the sun and Jupiter. Then I calculate how many times the sun's diameter is that of Jupiter.
