Question

How do you rewrite 10,000,000 as a power of ten?

Answer 1

`10^(7)`

Explanation:

We have: `10,000,000`

First, count the number of digits following the first digit (in this case its `1`):

`Rightarrow "Number of digits" = 7`

The way to express any large number in scientific notation is to multiply the first digit by `10` raised to the power of the number of digits after the first one.

So `10,000,000` would be expressed as `1 times 10^(7)`, or simply `10^(7)`.
