damn G chem

Im a chem guy but have a prob...when you are using all that scientific notation, calculating energies and stuff, you add the exponents right?
like for example,
(2.4566*10^-24)(3.282*10^48)...I know the exponent would be 10^24, but how in the hell do you figure out the first number??? If I can do this I could get alot of these problems for the DAT, thanks!

Multiply 2.4566*3.282=8.06256then put on the exponents*10^24

try to do these questins without caculater, more practice will make you faster.
