Scientific notation is just a short hand way of expressing gigantic numbers like 1,300,000 or incredibly small numbers like 0.0000000000045. Also known as exponential form, scientific notation has been one of the oldest mathematical approaches. It is favored by many practitioner. If numbers are too big or too small to be simply calculated, people refer to scientific notation to handle these circumstances. This method is used by engineers, mathematicians, scientists.

An example of scientific notation is 1.3 ×106 which is just a different way of expressing the standard notation of the number 1,300,000. Standard notation is the normal way of writing numbers.

Since a decimal point is not located between the leading nonzero digit and the adjacent digit, the term is not in scientific notation. So to make that term in scientific notation, shift 2 more decimal places to obtain 4.25 x 107.

It is 4.5 x 10^7

0.000000515 = 5.15e-7 or 5.15 x 10^-7

It is: 8.0*10^-4
