Objectives: ◦ Today I will be able to: Apply scientific notation to problem solving. Calculate multiplication and division problems using scientific notation. Apply dimensional analysis to solving metric coversions Informal Assessment – monitoring student interactions as they complete the scientific notation practice Formal assessment – math assessment/scientific notation practice and exit ticket Common Core Connection ◦ Make sense of problem and persevere in solving them ◦ Model with mathematics

4
Place the following numbers into scientific notation ◦ 0.00071m ◦ 5200 g ◦ 0.04 L What is the purpose of putting numbers into scientific notation?

Today I will be able to: Apply scientific notation to problem solving. Calculate multiplication and division problems using scientific notation. Apply dimensional analysis to solving metric coversions
6
Complete the dimensional analysis practice Wear closed toed shoes for lab on Wednesday and Thursday

Warm-Up Scientific Notation Notes Scientific Notation Practice Dimensional Analysis Notes Dimensional Analysis Practice Exit Ticket
9
In groups, brainstorm 3 examples of things that scientists/ engineers could study that would be large enough or small enough for scientific notation to be used to describe them
10
Examples ◦ 489000000 (Standard Notation) Move the decimal to the left, exponent is positive ◦ 4.89 x 10 8 (Scientific Notation) ◦ Numbers greater than 1 always have a positive exponent in scientific notation ◦ 0.000123 (Standard Notation) Move the decimal to the right, exponent is negative ◦ 1.23 x 10 -4 ◦ Numbers less than 1 always have a negative exponent in scientific notation
11
Examples ◦ 3.47 x 10 5 (Scientific Notation) Exponent is positive, move to the right ◦ 347000 (Standard Notation) ◦ 7.82 x 10 -4 (Scientific Notation) Exponent is negative, move to the left ◦ 0.000782 (Standard Notation)
12
Multiply or divide the numbers first ◦ (don’t include x 10 exp ) When multiplying, add the exponents together When dividing, subtract the exponents Make sure there is only one number before the decimal place in scientific notation. You may have to move the decimal so there is only one
13
Examples (2.0 x 10 5 )(7.0 x10 4 )= ◦ 1.4 x 10 10 (15.0 x 10 7 ) / (3.0 x 10 9 )= ◦ 5.0 x 10 -2
14
Complete the practice at your desk. We will review selected answers as a class.
16
A Fraction that is equal to the number one ◦ Two quantities that equal the same thing 12 inches 1 foot 7 days 1 week.5 ½
17
Do these two fractions equal the same quantity? 1 dozen 12 eggs 1 dozen Yes!
18
1. Read the problem 2. Write down what you are given, put it over 1 3. Write down what you are looking for 4. List all possible conversion factors for the problem 5. Make a road map 6. Solve the problem
19
How many minutes are there in 10 hours? Read the problem Write down what you are given, put it over 1 Write down what you are looking for. ◦ The number of minutes 10 hours 1
20
List all possible conversion factors for the problem ◦ We know that one hour = 60 minutes Make a road map ◦ Hours ? Minutes 1 hour 60 minutes 60 minutes 1 hour
21
Solve the problem ◦ We also know that when you multiply, if 2 quantities are placed in opposite corners of each other, they will cancel out Incorrect, the units do not cancel out 10 hours. 1 hour = 10 hours 2 1 60 minutes 60 minutes
22
Solve for Correct Answer! 10 hours. 60 minutes = 600 minutes 1 1 hour
23
How many minutes are there in 12 weeks? 12,096 minutes Weeks Days Hours ? Minutes 12weeks. days. hours. minutes = week day hour. 12 weeks. 7 days. 24 hours. 60 minutes = 1 week 1 day 1 hour
24
How many minutes are there in 2 years? Years Weeks Days Hours Minutes 2 years. weeks. days. hours. minutes = 1 year week day hour 2 years. 52 weeks. 7 days. 24 hours. 60 minutes = 1 1 year 1 week 1 day 1 hour = 1,048,320 minutes or 1,051,200 minutes (365 days)
25
How many liters are in 500 mL? mL ? L 500 mL. 1 Liter = 0.500 L 1 1000 mL
26
How many milligrams are there in 20 kg? kg g ? mg 20 kg. 1000 g. 1000 mg = 2 x 10 7 mg 1 1 kg 1 g
28
Activity ◦ Find your matching partner by finding the correct standard notation and scientific notation pair With your partner discuss the following questions: ◦ If you could have one special superhero power, what would it be? ◦ Would you rather have Cheetos fingers, or a popcorn kernel stuck in the back of your throat, for the rest of your life?
