7 billion in Scientific Notation = 7 x 109To express a number in scientific notation, you first need to divide it by a power of 10 such that the greatest significant figure is in the units place. In this case, that can be done by dividing 7 billion by 1 billion to give 7. Next, the power of ten that was used should be placed alongside as a multiplication. We used 1 billion, which is the 9th power of 10. Thus, 7 billion in scientific notation is 7x109
Because in the US it is considered that 1,000 x 1,000 should be called one billion, whereas in the UK it is considered that 1,000 x 1,000 should be called one thousand thousands, and that 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 should be called one billion.

400,000,000,000 (and you should always separate every three digits from the right with commas) is spelt "four hundred billion".
26.5 billion can be written in scientific notation as 2.65 x 10^10. This is because the decimal point is moved 10 places to the left to convert the number to a value between 1 and 10, and 10 raised to the power of 10 represents the original value of 26.5 billion.
