a way to make very large or small numbers easier to work with. Ex. 4,000 in scientific notation is 4 x 103. Also, .0004 would be 4 x 10-4. A positive exponent represents how many spaces you move the decimal point to the left. A negative exponent shows how many spaces you move the decimal to the right.
