2
Scientific Notation What happens to a number when you multiply it by 10? The decimal moves to the right What happens to a number when you divide by 10? The decimal moves to the left
3
Scientific Notation Scientific notation A number written as the product of two numbers The first number must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10 1 ≤ x < 10 The second number is written as a power of 10
4
Examples 2.5 x 10 -3 7.83 x 10 0 2.925 x 10 -2 4.04 x 10 -9 7.1 x 10 -4 6 x 10 7 0.0025 6400 -54,200,000 0.0000909 6,100,000 -0.0000329
