Answer:

0.000299 in scientific notation

2.99 × 10-4

Explanation:

To convert 0.000299 into scientific notation also known as standard form, follow these steps:

Move the decimal 4 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 2.99, 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 = -4

Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n

= 2.99 × 10-4
