All numbers in scientific notation or standard
form are written in the form m x 10n, where m is a number between 1 and 10 (1 ≤ Iml < 10 ) and the exponent n is a positive or negative integer.
To convert 0.0005 into scientific notation, follow these steps:
Move the decimal 4 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 5, 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 = -4
Write in the scientific notation form, m x 10n
= 5 x 10-4
Therefore, the decimal number 0.0005 written in scientific notation is 5 x 10-4 and it has 1 significant figures.
