In scientific notation, a number is written as a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10.
The given numbers in scientific notation are:
1. 6.54987 x 10^5
2. 6.4589743 x 10^8
3. 5.4678934 x 10^8
To determine which number has the greatest value, we compare the exponent of each number:
1. The exponent of 10 in 6.54987 x 10^5 is 5.
2. The exponent of 10 in 6.4589743 x 10^8 is 8.
3. The exponent of 10 in 5.4678934 x 10^8 is 8.
Since both the second and third numbers have the same exponent (8) and are greater than the first number, the number with the greatest value in scientific notation is 6.4589743 x 10^8.
