write the scientific notation for 0.000518.
Answers
Answer:
5.18 × 10-4 and "E notation" is 5.18e-4
Explanation:
All numbers in scientific notation or standard form are written in the form m × 10n, where m is a number between 1 and 10 ( 1 ≤ |m| < 10 ) and the exponent n is a positive or negative integer.
To convert 0.000518 into scientific notation, follow these steps:
Move the decimal 4 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 5.18, 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 × 10n
= 5.18 × 10-4
Therefore, the decimal number 0.000518 written in scientific notation is 5.18 × 10-4 and "E notation" is 5.18e-4
