To express the number 0.0000115741 in scientific notation, we need to convert it to a format that represents it as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10.

  1. First, we can write 0.0000115741 as: \[ 1.15741 \times 10^{-5} \]

In this case, we moved the decimal point 5 places to the right to convert it to a number between 1 and 10. Since we moved the decimal to the right, we use a negative exponent.

Therefore, in scientific notation, 0.0000115741 is: \[ 1.15741 \times 10^{-5} \]
