Answer:

9.519e^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To accurately show the number in scientific notation, you need to move the decimal place to the left 2 spaces. Because you are moving the decimal place to the left, the exponent will be a negative number. Because the decimal place moves 2 units to the left, the exponent will be a -2.

Therefore, the answer in correct scientific notation is:

951.9 ----------> 9.519e^-2
