My question for class is " The average person talks twenty-four million breaths every ten years. Write the number in scientific notation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Does this help?
Scientific notation simplifies the size of a number. So 6784000000000 is different from 389400000.

OK 1,000 = 10x10x10 so it equals 10 ^3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[10^{3}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
can you give me an example for my homework
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1000 = 10x10 three times
Hence \[10^{3}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many times do you need to times 10 by 10 to get a million?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10x10=100
10x10x10=1000...... carry on from there.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so would the answer be 2400000000
OpenStudy (anonymous):
24 million would be 24,000,000
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But don't worry about that how many times would you have to multiply 10 by itself to get 1,000,000 (a million)

Hint: counting the zeros can help.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what would the answer be
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10x10x10x10x10x10=1,000,000
i.e. \[10^{6}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So the answer is 24x\[10^{6}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Do I get a medal?
