Answer 1

1,391 10^3

I hope you mean Scientific Notation. This would be the answer for it. Hopes this helps.

Answer 2

Explanation:

It is given that, the diameter of the sun is, d = 1.391 million kilometers

We need to represent the diameter in scientific numbers. A number can be written in scientific form as :

`N=p.0* 10^q`

Where

p is any real number

q is any integer

Since,
`1\ million=10^6`

and 1 km = 1000 m

The diameter of sun is:

`d=1.391* 10^6\ km`

`d=1.391* 10^9\ m`

So, the diameter of the sun is
`1.391* 10^9\ m`. Hence, this is the required solution.
