Sagot :
The simplest I can put it
10^1 = 10
10^2 = 100
10^3 = 1000
(essentially the number of zeroes)
5*10^2 = 5*100 = 500 (adding 2 zeroes, or moving the decimal over 2 places
Same works for numbers smaller than zero
5*10^-2 = 5*.01 = .05 (moving the decimal to the right 2 places
10^1 = 10
10^2 = 100

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
How did you miss this? it's just about moving the decimal place to where it makes better sense. which just means, it's easier to read, and maybe to compare with other numbers. Like how maybe
1,000,000,000,000 might be harder to compare to 1,000,000,000,000,000 than if it looked like this in scientific notation
1.0 x[tex]10^{12}[/tex] and
1.0 x[tex]10^{15}[/tex]
right away you can see the difference, right?
the lower two numbers are the same as the upper two numbers , just to be clear.
also, if the number is much messier like this
2,254.2356111142254 then it's good to put into scientific notation as
2.254 x [tex]10^{3}[/tex]
scientific notation always puts the decimal after the very 1st digit never like this
22.54 x[tex]10^{2}[/tex]
that's not correct scientific notation. The decimal always goes right after the 1st digit like this
3.00 x[tex]10^{8}[/tex] Km/s maybe you'll recognize this as a very close approximate for the speed of light? anyway, hope that helps
