ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ Simplify Numbers in Scientific Notation using Exponent Laws

Scientific notation is a way of writing number. It is especially useful when we want to express very large and small numbers. There are two parts in scientific notation. The first part consists of digits, and the second part is x 10 to a power.

Hi, Welcome to this question right here. So sometimes the question that they have given to you is not in the proper scientific notation, so you just have to adjust it. Okay? So, again, the decimal must be to the right of one digit, so we had to move the decimal to the left two times. So it becomes 1.334 times 10 to the power of 5, but remember: if you move the decimal to the left, then you're gonna have to add the exponent. So you move it to the left two times, so you just had to go 5 plus the two, okay? So, I was just trying to show you the work. So remember next time you just have to add it right away. So 5 plus 7 gives you... sorry, 5 plus 2 gives you the 7. Thanks for watching.
