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.
Writing a Number in Standard Notation from Scientific Notation. Move the decimal point in the number the same number of places as the exponent. on 10. If the exponent is positive, move the decimal point to the right. If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point to the left. a. a. Notice the decimal point has been moved 6 places to the right. b. Notice that the decimal has been moved 3 places to the left. Similarly to write a number in scientific notation we reverse the process.
