these are not in scientific notation
5, 800,000 and -23.5
1.4 X 10 (to the FIRST power) ((Scientific Notation starts with some number, the left-most digit of which is some number of ONES!))
When talking about the number of miles to other stars, it is best to use scientific notation. Example: 2.38 x 1014 looks better than 238000000000000.
The significand. Some people call it the mantissa.
Physicist, chemist, biologists, and doctors all use scientific notation.
Therefore, the decimal number 0.000487 written in scientific notation is 4.87 × 10-4 and it has 3 significant figures. Here are some more examples of decimal to ...

A number written in scientific form is written in the form #.##... x 10a (note exactly one number before the decimal place), where a is an integer, while a number in exponential form is written in the form bc where b is prime and c is an integer. See the following examples: * 1024 is written in scientific notation as 1.024 x 103, but in exponential form as 210. * 0.0016 is written in scientific notation as 1.6 x 10-3, but in exponential form as 5-4. * 3 is written in scientific notation as 3 x 100 and in exponential form as 31. Please, note, however, that some sources say exponential form is just another way of saying scientific notation.
Some examples of scientific notation:6,300,000 is 6.3 x 106. .00000000000000524747474 is 5.247 x 10-16 (rounded to 4 significant figures)0.0000000056, we write 5.6 x 10-9953 in scientific notation is 9.53 x 10^2

0.002378 in scientific notation is 2.378 X 10 ^(-3); some write it as: 2.378E-3
because some numbers are tooo big for the screen so the calculator puts it in scientific notation form
Nothing is measured in scientific notation. Scientific notation is used merely to represent the result of some measurement - especially when that outcome is a very small or a very large number.
