^Correct, Scientific Notation is where you take the digits you have and multiply them to a power of 10 So here 154, 000, 000 take the 154, turn it into an integer with just 1 digit before the decimal 1.54 and multiply it by some power of 10 that gives you the same number \(\large 1.54 \times 10^8\)
