What is 0.00000000472 estimated as the product of a single digit and a power of 10?

OpenStudy (m_m13):

would it be 4.72 x 10^-5 or 4.72 x 10^-9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4.72 x 10^-9 You can count the number of times you move the comma to the right. :) You move it 9 times and you will have the comma at 4.72

OpenStudy (m_m13):

OpenStudy (m_m13):

so 4.72 x 10^-9?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
