Question

How do you write `53,657` in scientific notation?

Answer 1

`5.3657xx10^4`

Explanation:

In scientific notation, a number is written in the form `axx10^n`, where `1<=a<10` (this means number has single digit to the left of decimal point) and `n` is an integer.

Hence, `53657` can be written as `5.3657xx10^4`.

Note that decimal point has moved four points to the left.
