Scientific notation is a way of representing numbers, usually very large or very small, in the form a*10^b where 1 ≤ |a| < 10 is a decimal number and b is an integer (negative or positive). a is called the mantissa and b is called the exponent. To convert a number to scientific notation: · If the number has no decimal point, then add one at the end. · Then move the decimal point to just after the first digit while counting the number of places you have moved it. · The mantissa of the new number, formed after moving the decimal point is a. · If the original number is negative, then so is a. · The number of places to the left that the decimal point was moved is b. If it was moved to the right, then b is negative.
Sorry, but the above procedure takes five operations.

How do you write 240000 in Scientific Notation?
in standard form? 2.4*10^5 stick the decimal point between the 2 and the four: the first two digits, then how many places would you have to move the decimal to get back to the original number? this is equal the a multiple of ten each time, so we say, in this case, you would have to move the decimal 5 places to the right, so its *10^5 where ^ indicates that its a raised to the power sign, and * indicates we multiply. For example x squared is x^2 in this notation, and the only reason I'm having to use it, is because there is no way for my keyboard to write common maths easily. Using ^ and * in this answer is not part of the standard form notation, and you would just write it out normally: 2.4 times 10 to the power of 5. This notation is called standard index form.
What is 0.00048 in scientific notation?
2.48e-6 or 2.48 x 10^-6
What is the scientific notation for 791000?
9 x 10^4 (nine times ten to the four) The method of using scientific notation is never having the main number be greater than 10 and using 10 exponent a number to make up for the missing place value- 2747663 would be 2.747663 x 10^6 (because the decimal moves 6 places) :) Katie

How do you write 49000 in scientific notation?
To write 49000 in scientific notation, move the decimal point to the left so that there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. In this case, it would be 4.9. Then, count the number of places the decimal point was moved. In this case, it was moved four places to the left. Therefore, 49000 in scientific notation is 4.9 x 10^4.
How do you write 40000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 in words?
The best option for such large numbers is to write (and pronounce) them in scientific notation.
