Answer 5

It is easy to do these when you know that you move the decimal to the left for positive numbers and to the right for negative numbers - then count how many places.

Your number here is 348,000,000,000,000
So your decimal is at the end; 380,000,000,000,000.0
You move it 14 places to the left before it becomes less than 10.

3.48 then you multiply it by 10 and raise it to the 14th power.
