By definition, Scientific Notation has the following form:
Where "a" is a number greater than or equal to 1, but less than 10 and "b" is an Integer.
In this case, you have this number:
To express it in Scientific notation, follow these steps:
-The decimal point must be after the first digit (which must not be zero), so you must move de the decimal point 7 spaces to the left, so "b" will be positive.
-Then, the exponent "b" will be 7.
So, you get 38,050,000 expressed in scientific notation is :
