Question

write the number 9,700,000 in scientific notation

Answer 1

Explanation

$9700000$

All numbers in scientific notation or standard form are written in the form

$a\cdot10^b^{}$

where a is a number between 1 and 10, and b is a integer positive or negative

Step 1

Move the decimal 6 times to left in the number so that the resulting number, a= 9.7, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

so
