all u do is look at the first number. which is 1. and you put a decimal after it. so, 1. ---and then you simply count how many digits are after i. remember that number. and then you write 1.6X10^10 ....(^10-is the number of digits after the decimal, and the 6 is kept for accuracy. you could be even more accurate and write 1.68x10^10, or 1.678X10^10) Cheers. Don. I mma go get wasted.
