Write this number in standard notation if anyone could! 4.056 x 10^5

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

so, a positive exponent in scientific notation, just means to move the decimal point whatever the exponent is to the right because we are making it bigger

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

give it a try for me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be 40,560,000?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

almost

OpenStudy (babylove18):

405,600 you count 5 to the right of the decimal point

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

that seems a little big, how many times did you move the decimal point?

Thankyou you guys!😊

OpenStudy (babylove18):

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

uh, np, but remember to look at your exponent. In your response you did *10^7 not 10^5
