Answer 1

Answer:

$2.46962 \times {10}^{ - 2}$

Explanation:

In scientific notation every number is expressed as

$a \times {10}^{b}$

where a is any numerical between 1 and 10 and b is any positive or negative exponent of 10.

246.962 has to be written as 2.46962×10^-2

When we shift the point from right to left power of 10 is decreased by number of shifts.

We shifted point two places to the left hence we get the power as -2.
