Answer:

7.396 × 10-5

Explanation:

To convert 0.00007396 into scientific notation, follow these steps:

Move the decimal 5 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 7.396, 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 = -5

Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n

= 7.396 × 10-5
