What is the following number in decimal form? 1.75 × 10^−9 =
@igreen ITS REVERSED!
@campbell_st
I dont know what to do if its a negative
Yeah, you move the decimal place to the left instead of the right.
10^-9 :/
\(2.25 \times 10^{-4} \rightarrow 0.000225\) Move the decimal place 4 times to the right.
1.75 x 10^-9
*left
So for here we move it 9 places to the left.
\[\large 1.75 \times 10^{−1} = 0.175\]\[\large 1.75 \times 10^{−2} = 0.0175\]\[\large 1.75 \times 10^{−3} = 0.00175\]\[\large 1.75 \times 10^{−4} = 0.000175\]
i didnt know that!
so it would be 1.00000000075
\[1.75*10^{-9}=\frac{ 1.75 }{ 10^9 }=\frac{ 1.75 }{ 1,000,000,000 }=?\]
decimal point .... followed by 8 zeroes ... followed by 175
Um, no, you just added more zeroes..you move the DECIMAL place over and add 0 before the 1.
0.000000000175
0.000 000 00 175
for 10^-9 you will have 8 zeroes after the decimal
\[\frac{ 1.75 }{ 1,000,000,000 }=\frac{ 175 }{ 100,000,000,000 }=?\]
Yeah, it's not 9 zeroes, because moving it one over gives you 0.175, not 0.0175
