Question

How do you write 100005 in scientific notation?

Answer 1

`1.00005 *10^5`

Explanation:

Scientific notation means writing a number as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by the appropriate power of 10.
To find the appropriate small number we need to divide by ten five times over, or in other words `100005` is the small number multiplied by ten five times over .
The number is therefore `1.00005 *10^5`
