Question

Write this number in standard notation.
1.986 x 10negative exponent 6 or 1.986 x 10^6

Answer 1

`0.000001986`

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the number
`1.986*10^(-6)`. Standard notation would basically be this number without the
`10^(-6)` part.

To get rid of this part, we need to move the decimal point 6 places to the left (we go left because it's negative 6, indicating division).

So, when we move the decimal point 6 places to the left, the resulting number is:
`0.000001986`, with 5 zeros after the decimal point before a nonzero number.

Thus, the answer is
`0.000001986`.
