The number that is represented by P is 0.0057
- Narrow it down.
- The point P is between 5 * 10^-3 and and 6*10^-3
- When you go to the bottom line, P is on the 7th division from the left.
- Going from left to right increases P
- P is on a line that goes between 5 and 6. Each division is 1/10. So P is in the tenth place.
- One of the answers is 5.7 * 10^-3
- The other answer is .0057
- I really don't know which one to choose because we are given no direction. As a programmer, 0.0057 would be easier to program. I would choose it.
- If it is not correct, then 5.7 * 10^-3 is the answer.
