Given:

0.0100

We are required to write the decimal above in scientific notation.

Scientific notation is a way of rewritting very large or very small numbers to convenient decimal form.

To write 0.0100 in scientific notation, we have:


0.0100\text{ = 1.00 }\ast10^(-2)=1\ast10^(-2)

All you have to do is to move the decimal point
