Answer: Negative

When converting from scientific notation to standard notation if the power of 10 is negative we move the decimal to the left. If it is positive we move the decimal to the right.

Example: 3*10^-3=.03 and 3*10^3=300

Answer:

negative

Step-by-step explanation:

When converting a number from scientific notation to standard notation, if the power of 10 is _NEGATIVE_, move the decimal to the left.

For example, if you have


3.4 * 10^(-3) = 0.0034\\ \\1.2 * 10^(-5) = 0.000012

Scientific notation is usually to present one significant digit before the decimal point and express de difference with the real number by a multiplication of the power of 10.
