Scientific Notation

The layers of the earth extend for miles. It would be possible to list those distances in scientific notation.

It is: 6.1*10-3

4.78*10-4

9.296 × 107

The answer depends on how many significant digits or decimal places you wish to round to. That may depend on how reliable the number is as well as how accurate an answer is required.

6*10-3

106.3 = 1.063*102

The exponent is 0 in this case.

Usually they don't.

It is: 1.595*10^10

It could be 6.0*10^7 as in scientific notation

5.6E+1

It was to enable people to write very large and very small numbers in a concise way.

8.76 x 10 -2

=========

3.67*10^3

A proton is 2x10^-14m, or 0.00000000000002m

67240000 = 6.724 x 107

The answer will depend on what operation you have in mind.

7.4*10-8

To convert 0.0000000076 into scientific notation, you move the decimal point 10 places to the right until you are left with a single nonzero digit before the decimal. In this case, it would be 7.6 x 10^-9.

It is 2.94*10^-5 in scientific notation

There is no scientific notation for a pencil.

578 in scientific notation is 5.78 x 10^2

5880 trillion in scientific notation is written 5.88 x 10^15

1 nanometre = 1*100 nanometres.

or 1*10-12 kilometres.
