Question

How do you convert 0.00332 into scientific form?

Answer 1

I found: `3.32xx10^-3`

Explanation:

Move the point to the right and count the movements up to pass the first digit different from zero (`3` in this case):
`3.32`
I moved the point of 3 spaces to the RIGHT so I add a negative exponent of 10 equal to this total of movements, getting:
`3.32xx10^-3`
