what is 1554000000x^3 converted into scientific notation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You always must have one number in front of the decimal, then two behind it, then times 10 to a power.

That's the most common layout, although some people may have more digits behind the decimal

So I'll start it off for you. (1.55 * 10 ^ ?)x ^ 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The easiest way to find the exponent is to count the number of times you need to push the decimal over to get 1.55

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15.50 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Scientific notation only has one non-zero digit in front of the decimal, so you would need 1.55
