Answer:

24.1 x 10^4 = 241000 .056 x 10^7 = 560000 507 x 10^-5 = 0.00507

Explanation:

for scientific notation, all you need to do is start at the decimal point (or end of whole number) and move over the amount of spaces (the exponent) to the right. if it is a negative exponent, instead of moving to the right, you should move to the left.

for example : 500 x 10^3

when you start from the last zero and move to the right, you need to fill the space with three zeroes.

so 500 x 10^3 = 500,000.
