Answer:

Explanation:

First note that all the numbers in scientific notation are written in the form m × 10n, where n is an integer and the coefficient m is a non-zero real number between 1 and 10 in absolute value.

To convert 0.002822 into scientific notation also known as standard form, follow these steps:

Move the decimal 3 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 2.822, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative

n = -3

Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n

= 2.822 × 10-3

Therefore, 0.002822 in scientific notation is written as 2.822 × 10-3
