Convert 0.000007914 to scientific notation. 7914.0 × 1012 7914.0 × 10−12 7.914 × 106 7.914 × 10−6

A and B are wrong..we can take those out..we need a 1-digit whole number with/without a decimal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A negative exponent will make it smaller, and a positive exponent will make it bigger.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c or D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So do we want a negative exponent or a positive exponent? @caliallmon

dang i was just about 2 write that ^ was looking for the link

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think it is??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it would be C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no try agine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well.. Then it would be D because thats the only option left...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C is incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D is corrrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first think about "How many times do I need to multiply by ten to get 7.914?" if you multiply by 1,000,000 you get 7.914 but remember if you multiply you need to divide too, then: 0.000007914*1,000,000/1,000,000 you know that 1,000,000 is equal to 10^6, then you have: 0.000007914*10^6/10^6 finally you get: 7.914*10^(-6) so its d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C will make the number very large. D will make it a small decimal because of the negative exponent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C
