Scientific notation is a way to express either a very large, or a very small number.
10x5.34 is an example of scientific notation. So, move the decimal point to the right (since there is a positive exponent). It then becomes 53,000.
If there is a negative exponent, move the decimal point to the left instead of the right. 10x4.6-3 would become 0.0046.
Less digits are needed as for example 1,000,000,000 is 1.0*109 in scientific notation
251,000,000 in Scientific Notation = 2.51 x 108
150 million in Scientific Notation = 1.5 x 108
150 = 1.5 × 102
9.21x103 in ordinary decimal notation = 9,210
Ordinary decimal notation
It is 8.9*10^-5 in scientific notation
It is: 3.32*10^-3 in scientific notation
Less digits are needed as for example 1,000,000,000 is 1.0*109 in scientific notation
Ordinary notation is where the numbers are laid, or written out. Scientific notation is a short handed version with numbers that indicate the amount of zeroes behind the end of the numbers.
It is: 1.95*10^14 in scientific notation
1,000,000 in Scientific Notation = 1 x 106
9.16 in Scientific Notation = 9.16 x 100
It is: 3.9*10^7 in scientific notation
150,000,000 in Scientific Notation = 1.5 x 108
1,550 in Scientific Notation = 1.55 x 103
1,000,000 in Scientific Notation = 1 x 106
