1.79 x 10 2-2 Powers of Ten and Scientific Notation 7 Course 2 2-2 Powers of Ten and Scientific Notation Numbers are usually written in standard form. For example, 17,900,000 is in standard form. Scientific notation is a kind of shorthand that can be used to write large numbers. Numbers expressed in scientific notation are written as the product of two factors. In scientific notation, 17,900,000 is written as 7 1.79 x 10 A number greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 A power of 10

2-2 Powers of Ten and Scientific Notation Writing Math Course 2 2-2 Powers of Ten and Scientific Notation Writing Math In scientific notation, it is customary to use a multiplication cross () instead of a dot.

Additional Example 4: Writing Numbers in Standard Form Course 2 2-2 Powers of Ten and Scientific Notation Additional Example 4: Writing Numbers in Standard Form The population of China in the year 2000 was estimated to be about 1.262  109. Write this number in standard form. Since the exponent is 9, move the decimal point 9 places to the right. 1.262  109 = 1.262000000 = 1,262,000,000 The population of China was about 1,262,000,000 people.
