I will give a medal if someone can help me on this. Why do we use scientific notation, and what are the parts of an expression written in scientific notation?

I feel like such a failure for not knowing this...

that is to make it easy in writing the those numbers with many many digits, especially in the field of scientific areas where huge of these numbers are met. for example the speed of light is 3*10^28 m/s , and a rule it's writen as one integer then come the decimals *10 ^n, where n is + or - power
