Can someone help me express this in scientific notation? 0.53000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just don't know if it would be 5.3 x 10^-1 or 5.3000 x 10^-1

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

you don't have to have add any zeros after the last non-zero digit after the decimal

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

so 5.3 x 10^-1 is totally acceptable
