Scientific Notation
• Scientific Notation is used to write very large or very small numbers in a way that is easier to read and understand
• 2.34 x 105 is in scientific notation.• The first number has to be one or greater, but less
than 10.• It will always be times 10 to the something power. • The exponent tells you how many times the
decimal has been moved.
Really Large Numbers
• When a number starts out as a number greater than one, the exponent will be positive.
• 4,250,000,000• 4.25 x 109
• 5.8 x 104
• 58,000
Really Small Numbers
• When a number starts out less than one, the exponent will be negative.
• 0.000456 • 4.56 x 10-6
• 3.974 x 10-7
• 0.0000003974
