Question

Simone examined the pattern in the table.

Based on the pattern, which power of 10 would have a value of 1/1,000,000?
10^-6
10^-5
10^5
10^6

Answer 1

10^(-6)

Explanation:

1/1000000 = 1/10⁶ = 10^(-6)

Answer 2

Answer : The correct answer is,
`10^(-6)`

Step-by-step explanation :

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

As we are given the
`(1)/(1000000)=0.000001` in standard notation.

Now converting this into scientific notation, we get:

`\Rightarrow 0.000001=10^(-6)`

As, the decimal point is shifting to right side, thus the power of 10 is negative.

Hence, the correct answer is,
`10^(-6)`
