Algebra.Com's Answer #299644 by josmiceli(19441)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Scientific notation always looks like \n" ); document.write( "a.aaaaa x 10^b \n" ); document.write( "where the a's can be any numbers and \n" ); document.write( "as many after the decimal point as you want. \n" ); document.write( "b can be + or -. \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "10,453.895 \n" ); document.write( "you can do it in steps if you want \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "------------------- \n" ); document.write( "0.4584267 \n" ); document.write( "This time move the decimal point to the right \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "-------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Notice that when you make the number bigger \n" ); document.write( "you must make the exponent smaller \n" ); document.write( "and vice-versa \n" ); document.write( " |
