Standard form to sientific notation?

Question

standard form to sientific notation math 236,552

Answer 1

Scientific notation puts 1 digit to the left of the decimal point.

For 236552, the decimal point must be moved 5 places left to do this. The value 5 is then used as the exponent of 10:

2.36552 x 10^5

Sorry, I'm unsure about the rounding that may be required.

The previous answer to mine has the wrong rounding. The number would round to 2.37 x 10^5 rather than 2.36 x 10^5.

Answer 2

2.36 X 10^5
