1. Calculate the product:

194 x 103 = 19922

2. Express the result in the form a x 10^b, where 1 ≤ a < 10:

* Move the decimal point to the left until you have a number between 1 and 10. In this case, we move it four places to the left: 1.9922

* Since we moved the decimal point four places to the left, we multiply by 10^4.

Therefore, 194 x 103 in scientific notation is 1.9922 x 10^4
