In the following exercises, write each number in scientific notation.
552. 8,750,000

Answer 1

Hence, 87,50,000 can be expressed as
`$8.75 * 10^(6)$`.

Explanation:

- Given 87,50,000

- Use given, move the decimal point so that first factor is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 .

- Then count n and write in scientific notation.

Consider 87,50,000.

8.75

So, 8.75 lies between 1 & 10 .

Now, Decimal moved to 6 places at left.

`$8.75 * 10^(6)$`

So,
`$87,50,000=8.75 * 10^(6)$`.
