Scientific notation is useful in mathematics because it makes very large or very small numbers easier to compute.
It has the same meaning as scientific notation for instance 123,000,000 is 1.23*108 when in standard form or scientific notation
It is one of the great ironies of Mathematics that "standard" is not standard. In the US, standard notation is a number, like 953, which would be written in scientific notation as 9.53 x 10^2 In Britain, scientific notation is also known as "standard form."
The scientific notation of that term is: 1.2 x 105.
Something that is a billion starts with base 109. Therefore, the term in scientific notation is 7.0 x109
