Scientific notation (also referred to as scientific form, standard form or standard index form) is a way of expressing numbers that are too big or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. It is commonly used by scientists, mathematicians and engineers, in part because it can simplify certain arithmetic operations.
Page 1 of 7. Scientific Notation, Engineering Notation. Scientific. Notation âScientific Notationâ or âStandard Formâ is a way of writing numbers. in a compact form. A number written in Scientific Notation is expressed as a number. from 1 to less than 10 multiplied by a power of 10. To write a number in Scientific Notation: â¢ shift the decimal point so that there is one digit (which. cannot be zero), before the decimal point. â¢ multiply by a power of 10, equal to the number of places the. decimal point has been moved. The power of 10 is positive if the decimal point is moved to the left. and negative if the decimal point is moved to the right . Examples. 1. Write 5630 in Scientific Notation. 5630 563 1000 563 10= Ã = Ã. . 3 (remember 1000 = 10 3) Move the decimal point three places to the left. The number becomes 5.63. The power of 10 is then positive 3. 2. Write 0.00725 in Scientific Notation. 0 00725 7 25 0001 7 25 10. . . .= Ã = Ã â3 (remember 0.001 = 10-3)
