Question

Write each number into scientific notation. Include decimal points were necessary! Double check your answers before you submit. Make sure to include a zero before a decimal number, like 0.004 instead of .004.

Answer 1

To write the number in scientific notation we need to move the decimal point. Since we will move it to the right the exponent of the 10 will be negative, in this case we need to move the decimal point 5 places to the right, hence the number in scientific notation is:

`3.8*10^(-5)`
