In the following exercises, write each number in scientific notation.
551. 340,000

Answer 1

Hence, 3,40,000 can be expressed as
`$$3.4*10^5$$`

Explanation:

Step 1 of 1

Consider 3,40,000

3.4

So, 3.4 lies between 1 & 10

Now, Decimal has moved 5 places to left.

`$3.4=10^(5)$`

So, 3,40,000=
`3.4 * 10^(5)$`
