OpenStudy (ltrout):

do you know how to convert into scientific notation?

OpenStudy (volleyballlover55):

yes

OpenStudy (ltrout):

The first step would be to move the decimal place from the end until you have a number less than 10. So > 149,600,000.0 -> 1.49x10^x. x = how many spaces you moved the decimal to get this answer. so 1.49x10^8 for the first answer. Can you do the second?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

okay example \[4,900=4.9*10^3\]

OpenStudy (ltrout):

Edit: Meant to put 1.496** sorry about that.
