If done correctly, the coefficient of the scientific notation has the same number of significant figures as the whole number.

What does a percent circle look like?
a circle with a certain percent at a certain mesurement.
What does a query do on a database?
it allows you to select certain data
If 12 is subtracted from 1 tenth of a certain number the answer is 13 but what is the number?
250
Lisa has a certain amount of money she spent 39 dollars and has 75 of the original amount how much money did she have originally?
If Lisa had a certain amount of money and spent $39 of it and has 75% of the original amount left then Lisa originally started out with $156.00.
What is a diagram used to identify the prime factors of a number?
A factor tree is very useful when identifying the prime factors of a number. You draw two lines off of it and write two numbers that multiply together to make that number. If one of the numbers cannot be divided any further, then circle it. That is a prime number. Draw two lines off of numbers that can be divided further, so you have multiple branches dividing off into certain numbers. Once all the numbers have been divided down, you are left with prime numbers which you can then multiply to get back to the original number.

0.00000625 in scientific notation?
Hi! This number in scientific notation is a certain number/expression 😁
How do you know if a number is written in scientific notation?
If it is written in scientific notation it will have x10 to a certain power if it is standard it won't
What is the number 3300 expressed as in scientific notation and engineering notation?
Scientific notation: 3.3*103 And I'm not certain, but I think it is also 3.3*103 in engineering notation
How does scientific notation make writing certain numbers easier?
Because it uses fewer digits as for example 9,000,000,000,000,000 in scientific notation is 9.0*10^15
What is 1594 as a scientific notation?
In scientific notation, you just want to make your number to be between 1 and 10, then multiplied by 10 to a power. If we take this number, we need to move the decimal 3 places to the right. Since we're moving it to the right, our power will be positive. So our answer is 1.594 x 10^3. Scientific notation is really nice when we are calculating in upper science class, and need a certain number of significant digits.
How many significant figures are in 15.0?
Three in 150.With trailing zeros it can be ambiguous.One thing is certain: if you use scientific notation there is nor doubt.In scientific notation one hundred fifty can be written as1.5 * 102 in which case there are two significant figuresor it can be written as1.50 * 102 (or 15.0*101) with three significant figures [However there also is one trailing zerohere!]or as1.500 * 102 (four significant figures) this also could be expressed as 150.0 - no doubt there that there are four significant figures for zeros to the right of the decimal point!
What is the difference between significant figures and exponent notations?
Significant figures is a way of trying to convey how accurately something is being measured. A very accurate scale may measure .001 grams, a bathroom scale may be only accurate to within 2 lbs. Exponential notation has nothing to do with measurement. It is just a choice on how to write a number, usually for some mathematical application. 243 = 35 this is exponential 'notation'. Scientific notation is a certain type of exponential notation in which the base must be 10. 243 = 2.43 x 102 that is scientific notation.
If the scientific notation stops at centillion why don't the numbers stop too?
Scientific notation allows for representing extremely large or small numbers using a simpler format. The system itself does not set a limit on the numbers that can be written in scientific notation. However, beyond a certain point, numbers become so large that they are not practical or meaningful in most scientific or everyday contexts, which is why the representation is typically stopped at centillion.
Why is only certain scientific notation used for electronics?
Some electronic values are very large or very small, so it is more convenient to use scientific notation than to write out lots of zeros.

The size of a certain plant cell is 0.00001276 meters What is the size of the plant cell written in scientific notation?
0.00001276 meters in Scientific Notation = 1.276 x 10-5 meters.
