Question

Label the following using the terms scientific notation, standard notation, and decimal notation: 1.34 x 10^6 / 100,000,000 / 1.67

a. 1.34×10^6(Scientific Notation)
b. 0.0000134 (Decimal Notation)
c. 134,000,000 (Standard Notation)
d. 1.67 (Decimal Notation)

Answer 1

The task was to label different representations of numbers. A number expressed as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10 is scientific notation. A number written with digits and a decimal point without powers of 10 is decimal notation, and with commas for readability, it's standard notation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves identifying different ways of expressing numbers, including scientific notation, standard notation, and decimal notation.

1. a. 1.34×106 (Scientific Notation): This is the correct identification of scientific notation, where a number is written as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.
2. b. 0.0000134 (Decimal Notation): Here, the number 1.34 x 106 divided by 100,000,000 is correctly represented in decimal notation, showing the placement of the decimal point.
3. c. 134,000,000 (Standard Notation): This is incorrect because the correct standard notation should be the result of multiplying 1.34 x 106 without any powers of 10, which would actually be 1,340,000.
4. d. 1.67 (Decimal Notation): This number is simply expressed in decimal notation without any exponents or special formatting.
