You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{15 \cdot {10}^{4}}{3 \cdot {10}^{-2}}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{15 \cdot {10}^{4}}{3 \cdot {10}^{-2}} = 5000000\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{15 \cdot {10}^{4}}{3 \cdot {10}^{-2}}& = 15 \cdot 10^{4} \cdot \frac{1}{3 \cdot \frac{1}{10^{2}}}\\& = 15 \cdot 10000 \cdot \frac{1}{3 \cdot \frac{1}{10^{2}}}\\& = 15 \cdot 10000 \cdot \frac{1}{\frac{3}{100}}\\& = 15 \cdot \frac{1000000}{3}\\& = 5000000\end{aligned}\]
