Answer:
To convert 0.000000120 into scientific notation, follow these steps:
Move the decimal 7 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 1.2, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10
Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative
n = -7
Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n
= 1.2 × 10-7
Therefore, the decimal number 0.000000120 written in scientific notation is 1.2 × 10-7 and it has 3 significant figures
