Scientific Notation is made up of two number parts. The second part is a power of base 10.

• True

• False

How would you write 564,000,000 in scientific notation?

• 5.64 x 10^-7

• 5.64 x 10⁶

• 5.64 x 10⁸

• 56.4 x 10⁷

How do you write
1001
in scientific notation?

• 1.0001 x 10⁴

• 1.01 x 10⁵

• 1.001 x 10³

• 10.1 x 10³

Express the following in scientific notation:
.000457

• 457 x 10⁶

• 457 x 10^-6

• 4.57 x10⁴

• 4.57 x 10^-4

UNDERSTANDING
If the exponent is a positive number...

• you will get a large number

• you will get a smaller number

When your exponent is negative, you move your decimal....

• to the right

• to the left

• to both sides

• nowhere.... the decimal goes nowhere

Write the answer in scientific notation.
7.3 x 10⁵  +   3.7 x 10⁵  =

• 11.0 x 10⁵

• 1.10 x 10¹¹

• 1.1 x 10 ⁶

Write the answer in scientific notation.
5 x 10⁸ -   3.4 x 10⁸  =

• 2.4 x 10⁸

• 2.4 x 10⁰

• 1.6 x 10⁰

• 1.6 x 10⁸

(2.3 x 10²)+(4.1 x 10²)=

• 6.4 x 10⁴

• 6.4 x 10²
