By definition, we have:

Scientific notation, also called pattern or notation in exponential form, is a way of writing numbers that accommodate values too large (100000000000) or small (0.00000000001) to be written in a conventional manner.

A number written in scientific notation follows the following pattern:

[tex] m * 10 ^ e
[/tex]

The number m is called "mantissa" and e the "order of magnitude"

For this case we have the following number:

[tex] 3,482,000,000
[/tex]

Using the definition we have:

[tex] 3,482,000,000 = 3,482 * 10 ^ 9
[/tex]

Answer:

The number written in scientific notation is given by:

[tex] 3.482 * 10 ^ 9 [/tex]
