Answer 1

Scientific Notation is a way scientist write long numbers so it is easy to fit in a small space.

Scientific Notation is written in a form  a x 10^b where 'a' is less than 9 but greater than 1. 'b' is basically the number of times you would move the decimal point to get 'a' to be between 1 and 9. If the initial number is less than 1 (or you move the decimal towards the right, then 'b' would be negative.) Vice Versa

0.000000027 -----> 2.7 x 10^-8

356 ------------------> 3.56 x 10^2

47,764--------------> 4.78 x 10^4 (rounded up)*

0.096----------------> 9.6 x 10^-2

*rounded because it is shorter, but also correct if you write the whole number.  

Answer 2

2.7x 10 to the -8

3.56x 10 to the second

9.6x 10 to the -2

1)Didn't know how to put the numbers up beside the 10's. count from the decimal to each place number until you get in front of the number 7. You go 8 places 8 times.

2)put the decimal between the 3 and 5 and count how many places after decimal which is 2

3)do the same as # 1

That was hard to explain. Hope that helped!

ooops missed one! Sorry!

Answer 3

2.7 * 10 8th power

3.56 * 10 2nd power

4.47764 * 10 4th power

9.6 * 10 -2nd power
