Question

Write in scientific notation 8000000

Answer 1

Answer :

8000000 = 8 × 10⁶

Answer 2

Scientific Notation is also known as Standard Form and it is a special way of writing large numbers.

For Example -:

3000 ⇒ 3 × $10^{3}$

So the question is why did I represent 3000 in the form of 3 × $10^{3}$?

Answer :

This is because ⇒

⇒ 3000 =  3 × 1000

⇒ 1000 = $10^{3}$

⇒ 3000 = 3 × $10^{3}$

∴ 3000 and 3 × $10^{3}$ have the same value, just that they are shown in different ways.

So for 8000000, the scientific or standard notation would be -

⇒ 8000000 ⇒  8 × 1000000

⇒ 1000000 = $10^{6}$

⇒ 8000000 = 8 ×  $10^{6}$

∴ 8000000 is equal to 8 ×  $10^{6}$ in its scientific notation.
