Question

Rewrite 0.00267 in scientific notation. 2.67 x 103 2.67 x 102 2.67 x 10−3 2.67 x 10−2

Answer 1

• 
  `\sf{2.67 × 10^(-3)}`

Explanation:

All the numbers in scientific notation written in the form
`\tt{a× 10^(b)}`, where b is an integer and the coefficient a is a non-zero real number between 1 and 10 in absolute value.

To convert 0.00267into scientific notation also known as standard form, follow these steps:

1. Move the decimal 3 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 2.67, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10
2. Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative (n = -3)
3. Write in the scientific notation form,
   `m × 10^(n)= 2.67 × 10^(-3)`

Final answer:

.°. Therefore, 0.00267 in scientific notation is
`\bold{2.67 × 10^(-3)}`and It has 3 significant figures.

Answer 2

The answer is 2.67 x 10^-3
