1.56 x 10^4 in standard notation???

Question

jhonyy9 · Answer

do you have any idea about this ? what mean standard notation ?

mhchen · Answer

I think you should've learned scientific notation, since that's what your given is.

Standard notation just just multiplying that out so:

1.56 * 10^4 
= 1.56 * 10000
= ?

Can you solve it now?

misssmartiez · Answer

You just add 4 zeroes and remove the decimal point.

156'0000'

Now, 1,560,000

Hm....

misssmartiez · Answer

Hint, the exponent usually JUST indicate how many zeroes it will have/be added on in the 'SN', standard notation, form.

misssmartiez · Answer

You get it, or you want another way/explanation?

You wouldn't add four zeros, just move the decimal over by four to the right

misssmartiez · Answer

True. I was thinking of another tease, sorry, that was multiplication. I looked back on my reply.

so i don't add four zeros? i'm sorry, i'm just terrible at math.

1davey29 · Answer

No. You move the decimal to the right, so 1.56 becomes 15600.|dw:1475183560530:dw|

Yes, I am sorry (I was on brb.) He/she is CORRECT. DO NOT FOLLOW THAT 'TEASER', that cheat only really goes for multiplication with tens. Not exponential formats.

Say for instance, 

10 x 5,

1 zero is sited. Therefore you simply add a 0 to the five, which is fifty.

Get that? Yes. THIS does NOT go for standard ---> scientific notation or vice versa. You actually MOVE the decimal point over to the right, by how many times it tells you in the exponent place.|dw:1475183899504:dw|


NOW, if it was a NEGATIVE exponent, then, you move it to the LEFT.


Do you get it?
