Notice how the other three have 1 digit to the left of the decimal point.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to put this in scientific notation 0.023 × 10-5 it should be rewritten as 2.3 x 10^(-7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okayand how did u do that

Move the decimal place so that there is one digit to the left of it. When you move the decimal place to the left, add 1 to the exponent each time. When you move the decimal place to the right, subtract 1 from the exponent each time. |dw:1343234650787:dw|
