Question

How do you write 8million in scientific notation?

Answer 1

`8 xx 10^6`

Explanation:

`8,000,000 = 8,000,000.0`

Move the decimal point until only the 8 is in front of it, so:

`8.000000`

Now in order to complete scientific notation, you have to have `8 xx 10^n` to the power of some number, and this number is the number of spaces you moved the decimal point.

In this case `n=6`

so `8 xx 10^6`
