Why the decimals are also used in scientific notation?

In scientific notation, the coefficient (number before the base 10) is written such that there is only one digit before the decimal point, and that digit can be 1 to 9. After that, the rest of the number is written after the decimal point, and there is no limit to the number of digits after the decimal point. The exponent on the 10 indicates how many places to move the decimal in order to change the number to standard form. Conversely, when going from standard form to scientific notation, the exponent indicates the number of places to move the decimal to change the number from standard form to scientific notation.Examples:1.48762 x 105 = 148762 in standard form7.593 x 10-3 = 0.007593 in standard form39732 = 3.9732 x 104 in scientific notation0.046 = 4.6 x 10-2 in scientific notation

How do you change a number to a scientific notations?

You simply take the number of digits less one as the power, convert the number to a decimal between 0 and 10 and then note this decimal x 10 to the power calculated previously. e.g. 1,000,000 in scientific notation is 1.0 x 106 123,000,000 in scientific notation is 1.23 x 108


Can you have a whole number in scientific notation?

Yes. A whole number is any positive number including zero. Let's say you want to use the whole number 47. The scientific notation for 47 is 4.7 times 101. You can put any number into scientific notation except fractions. You would have to change the fraction to a decimal (if possible) before you could put it into scientific notation.
