OpenStudy (zale101):

When writing a scientific notation, you know that it always has a digit located on the left of the decimal which means you're going to move the decimal over five places and you'll get 2.35402.

ok

OpenStudy (zale101):

You move the decimal point of a number until the new form is a number from 1 up to 10 (N), and then record the exponent (a) as the number of places the decimal point was moved. Whether the power of 10 is positive or negative depends on whether you move the decimal to the right or to the left. Moving the decimal to the right makes the exponent negative; moving it to the left gives you a positive exponent.
