To convert number from standard form to scientific notation, you need to shift the decimal places left/right right up to the one between the leading nonzero digit and the adjacent digit. For instance:
0.034
Shift 2 decimal places to the right to obtain:
3.4 x 10-2.
Well, to convert the number from scientific notation to standard form, shift the number of decimal places in the opposite way. For instance, if the exponent for base 10 is -2, and you want to convert it back to the standard form, you shift 2 decimal places to the left.
Do nothing! Standard form and scientific notation are the same.
Yes - you can always convert numbers to scientific notation - whether they're whole numbers, or decimals.
It's best to convert those numbers from scientific notation to normal notation; that makes it easy to add them. After adding them, you can convert back to scientific notation if you want. Another option is to keep the numbers in scientific notation, but to convert them so that both have the same exponent.
The steps, in order, will depend on what you wish to do: convert from normal to scientific notation, the converse, perform one of the basic operations of arithmetic on numbers in scientific notation.
Since .4428 is to the ten thousandths place, and scientific notation only takes an integer, a decimal point and then the numbers after it, the scientific notation would be 4.428 * 10-1

It is 8.9*10^-5 in scientific notation
While numbers under 1,000 usually aren't written in scientific notation 10 would be written as 1.0 x 101
It is: 3.32*10^-3 in scientific notation
Scientific notation is simply taking out powers of 10 out of a number, to deal with large numbers. 447.9 can be converted to 4.479*100=4.479*10^2
It is: 1.95*10^14 in scientific notation
No. Scientific numbers are constants that appear in science. They may or may not require scientific notation.
1,000,000 in Scientific Notation = 1 x 106
