To not confuse yourself put zero in front of decimal... YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS


0.0765 You move decimal to the right 2 times

7.65 (You always stop moving decimal when you have a number other than 0 on the left)

Then you add x 10 to the number of spaces you moved


7.65 x 10^2 (2 represents the # of spaces you moved)
