determine the diameter of
8.4x10^-6 in standard notation


Sagot :

As I understand, you want to write a diameter, that currently is in scientific notation, in standard notation.

The standard notation is 0.0000084

First, scientific notation is a way to write really long numbers (particularly those that have a lot of zeros) in a shorter way.

The general form is:

Ax10^n

If n is positive, we add n zeros at the right of our number.

If n is negative, we add n zeros to the left.

Here we have:

8.4x10^-6

So n is negative, meaning that we need to add the zeros at the left (also remember to correctly change the position of the decimal point) we will get:

8.4x10^-6 = 0.0000084

This is the measure in standard notation.
