Question

) How many 0.0005 cm are there in 5m? Express your answer in standard form.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5×10 to the negative Determine how much centimeters are there in a meter which is a 100 then divide 100 into 0.0005 and you would get 0.000 005cm. To arrive at standard form you try to get rid off zeros and arrive at a number less than 10 but greater than 0 so we drop off the leading zeros and have 5 now for the standard form to have the Same value we multiply by the amount of digits there which is 6 (the 0 before the decimal point does not count) then because the answer is less than one the standard form should be in the negative hence we get 5×10 to the negative 6 power
