When numbers get very large or very small, all those zeros get confusing.
If you made a mistake counting them you might make an error of vast magnitude.
While numbers under 1,000 usually aren't written in scientific notation 10 would be written as 1.0 x 101
1.4589x 104 written out in scientific notation is:1.4589x104
Scientific notation (also called standard form or exponential notation) is a way of writing numbers that accommodates values too large or small to be conveniently written in standard decimal notation.
It is 7.28*10^-7 in scientific notation
The measurement 0.000065 cm written in scientific notation is: 1.5 × 10-8cm
Such numbers would not need to be written in scientific notation but if need be it is: 1.2345*10^2
Yes - you can always convert numbers to scientific notation - whether they're whole numbers, or decimals.
Ordinary notation is where the numbers are laid, or written out. Scientific notation is a short handed version with numbers that indicate the amount of zeroes behind the end of the numbers.
Such numbers usually are not written in scientific notation but just for the exercise it is:- 1.095*102
0.000729512 in scientific notation written to 3 significant places is 7.30x10-4.
Here are the quick examples of the numbers written in scientific notation: 3.4 = 3.4 x 100 34.0 = 3.4 x 10
Usually numbers under 1000 are not written in scientific notation however 226 would be written as 2.26 x 102.
As far as it is possible to tell, neither of the two are in scientific notation.
When they are very large or very small.
Scientific notation is a way of writing numbers that are too big or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. In normalized scientific notation all numbers are written in the form a x 10^b (a times ten raised to the power of b) where a is a nonzero single-digit integer and b is an integer.
Scientific notation is a way that scientists are able to handle either very large numbers or vary small numbers. The scientific notation for the number 70,680,000 would be written as 7.068 x 10^7.
so they are smaller quicker and easier to write
