Answer:

(a) 0.00000221 (b) 4.2 x
10^(5)

Explanation:

(a)
10^(-6) means you need to move the decimal left (because of the negative) 6 spaces. So you have 2.21 move the decimal 6 spaces left and you end up with 0.00000221

(b) If you have 420,000 and you count 5 spaces from the last number, that leaves the decimal inbetween the 4 and 2 so your answer will be 4.2 x
10^(5)
