How do you convert 447.9 into scientific notation?

Scientific notation is simply taking out powers of 10 out of a number, to deal with large numbers. 447.9 can be converted to 4.479*100=4.479*10^2

What is 9030000 in scientific notation?

9030000 in scientific notation is 9.03 x 10^6.

What is 700000 in scientific notation?

7 times 105 = 700000

700000 in scientific notation is 7 times 10 to the power of 5.

What it means for a number to be in scientific notation?

It usually is for larger numbers like 314,000,000.

The goal is to make it a number with the first digit being in the ones place. The other numbers are in the decimal places.

Given 314,000,000:

3.14 x 10(2+6) = 3.14 x 108

How did I get 8?

8=2+6

6: the number of zeros behind the 314 part

2:number of times you need to divide 314 by 10 to get the first digit into the ones place.

Write in scientific notation 4.7?

The solution is 4.7 x 100 since you are not moving the decimal point at all. If that is so, then the exponent for base 10 is 0.
