What is the difference between scientific notation and significant figures?
the diffrence is just nothing
What is the difference between scientific notation and standard notation?
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. Standard notation refers to expressing a number in its 'normal' form. For example, the standard notation of 150 is simply 150.
What is the difference between a number in scientific notation and one in standard form?
there is just an easier way of writing a large number in scientific notation by placing times 10 then a negative or positive exponent compared to a large number
What is the difference between a scientific notation and standard form?
scietific notation for example 1000 is 1 times 10 to the power of 3 while standerd form is just 1000
What is 293000 in scientific notation?
2.93E5, or 2.95 times 10 to the 5th power. The difference between "scientific notation" and "engineering notation" is that scientific notation generally has one digit before the decimal point and can have any exponent, while engineering notation uses exponents divisible by 3; so, 3, 6, 9, 12 and so on. So in "engineering notation", this number would be 293 times 10 to the 3rd power, or 0.293 times ten to the sixth power.
What is the difference between scientific and mechanical calculators?
scientific calculators have scientific calculations such as scientific notation, but mechanical ones dont.

What is the difference between 100 billions and a million millions?
100 billions = 100,000,000,000 or as 1.0*1011 in scientific notation Million millions = 1,000,000,000,000 or as 1.0*1012 in scientific notation

What is the difference between a scientific notation and a standard notation?
Well, adding x10 is scientific notation. Example:456-4.56x102. this is because there are two numbers before the decimal. another example:14945-1.4945x104. if you do not get it, I'm sorry. This is the best i can explain
Why would losing decimals be important in scientific notation?
This can be important when a measurement of importance is the small difference between two very similar quantities. If the similar quantities are expressed in scientific notation such that some decimals are lost, it is possible that the difference appears to be zero.

What is the difference between scientific notation and decimal number?
Scientific notation involves representing each digit in the number as a power of ten. In a decimal number, you just write the digits in order with a decimal point in the appropriate place.

What is the difference between scientific notation and engineering notation for writing numbers?
In both notations a number is represented in the form a*10^b where a is a real number and bis an integer.In scientific notation, 1
What is the difference between a scientific notation and standard form?
scietific notation for example 1000 is 1 times 10 to the power of 3 while standerd form is just 1000
Is the number 32x10-4 scientific notation?
Nope. Scientific notation always starts with a number between 1 and 10.
