Write 0.0003532\nand 34392.55\nand 0.000938\nin scientific notation.\n\nI am trying to check my sons homework for him and I have no clue how to do scientific notation..any help would be appreciated!

(m)\n\nScientific notation is a convenient way to write very large and very small numbers. , for example, means one billion (a 1 followed by nine zeros: 1,000,000,000). means one billionth, or 0.0000000001. Writing instead of nine zeros saves the reader the effort and hazard of counting a long string of zeros to see how large the number is.

Does 0.9999999999999999999999999....(continued) = 1.0\n\nA great topic in maths which will actually interest people because the above statement is true.

Yes the top are correct\n\nOn the second set do you mean write them out long ways??\n\n9,350,000,000\n0.0000000000667\n6.1367

1.25 * 10^-3 * 8 * 10^-5\n\n(1.25 * 8) * (10^-3 * 10^-5)\n\n(10^1) * (10^-8)\n\nANSWER : 1.0 * 10^-7

We use the symbol above the number 6 on the keyboard to show exponents.  For example, 2 squared is typed 2^2 = 4.\n\nWhy don't you use the symbol ^ and retype your question correctly?\n\nGuido

Scientific Notation is just a way of expressing VERY small numbers or VERY large numbers so we don't have to perform or write equations and figures like 187,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 x 4,500.\nInstead, it's much simpler to write:\n(1.87 x 10 to the 26th power)(4.5 x 10 to the third power)

It's multiplication.\n\n(64500)(0.02) = 1290\n\nScientific notation is 1.29 * 10^3

I GOT THIS ANSWER!! When you write it as a roman numeral!!

The previous responders have given you the answer for a terminating decimal. (That means a decimal that has a certain number of decimal places, and then all the rest of it is zeroes. For example, .9187 is a terminating decimal, which could be extended with zeroes as .918700000000000000000....)\n\nBut you may be asking about repeating decimals. These are more interesting. Here's how you convert them to fractions.\n\nIf there is only a single digit that repeats (such as .3333333333....), you take that digit and put it over 9:\n.3333333333.... = 3/9 = 1/3. (Note that you should put the fraction in lowest terms (1/3, in this case) after you put the digit over 9.)\n\nIf there are 2 digits that repeat, you put them over 99. For example, .636363636363636363.... = 63/99 = 7/11.\n\nAnd if there are lots of digits that repeat, you put them over the same number of 9's. For example, .71237123712371237123.... = 7123/9999.\n\nThere are other tricks, such as a decimal that doesn't repeat until after the first few decimal places (e.g., .7633333...), but the above rules should handle most of the situations you encounter.

The number is 41312432.\n\nThe "4" is in the 1st anf fifth space. 4_ _ _ _4_ _\nThe "1" is in the 2nd and 4rth space_1_ 1_ _ _ _\nThe "3" is in the 3rd and 7th space _ _ 3_ _ _3_\nThe "2" is in the 5th and 8th space_ _ _ _ 2 _ _2\n\nDon't know any way to show steps other than the way I did here...\n\nBTW the number 23421314 also satisfies the requirements.

Good Luck mandylaz----I have not a clue!! I am not very good when it comes to throwing numbers and letters together!! :) Sorry!! Hope you find your answer!!

If you're using windows, the calculator program that comes with the system should be quite adequate. It will even allow you to perform your binary-to-decimal conversion easily. Just switch the calculator mode to scientific (under the view menu), select bin (upper left corner), type in your binary number, and select dec, and there is your answer.\n\nIf you're not using windows... try someone else's advice.

Write it as 999.9, and stick a line over the 9 after the decimal point.

Multiply the numbers 1.25 and 8\n1.25*8 = 10\nadd the exponents on the 10's\nneg.3 + neg.5 = -3 + -5 = -8\nThus, we have\n10 times 10^(-8)\n10 is not in scientific notation\n10 = 1 times 10^1\nThus, the final answer is\n1 times 10^(-7)
