An advantage of using the scientific notation is that scientists have to use large and small numbers and this helps them by showing the number in a smaller way.
it saves time from writing all the same numbers and to expess very large numbers and small quantities
200,000 in Scientific Notation = 2 x 105
Using scientific notation reduces the need to write out very large or very small numbers as the following examples show:- 1,000,000,000,000 = 1.0*1012 in scientific notation 0.0000000001 = 1.0*10-10 in scientific notation
The point of using scientific notation is to compute very large or very small numbers.
0.0000072 in Scientific Notation = 7.2 x 10-6
375,000 in Scientific Notation = 3.75 x 105
It has no advantage.
Would you rather write 6000000000000000000 X 6000000000000000000 = 36000000000000000000000000000000000000 or 6E18 X 6E18 = 3.6E37? Advantage: scientific notation.
Anyone can use scientific notation - including women!
It is 3.0002*10^10 in scientific notation

0.0000072 in Scientific Notation = 7.2 x 10-6
375,000 in Scientific Notation = 3.75 x 105
4000 in scientific notation is 4 x 103
There is nothing to change. There is no advantage or reason to write 2.33 in scientific notation. It could be written as 2.33 × 100, but this is not normally done.
The advantage of expressing numbers in scientific notation is that they are more compact.
