Answer 1

In scientific notation, the number 92,400,000 can be written as:

$$9.24\times {10}^7$$

Here's how it breaks down:

• Move the decimal point 7 places to the left to get 9.24, which is between 1 and 10.
• The exponent (7) indicates how many places the decimal was moved.

So, $92,400,000=9.24\times {10}^7$.
