To convert the number 0.004694 into scientific notation, you need to express it as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10.
1. Move the decimal point to the right until you have a number between 1 and 10:
\( 4.694 \) (moved the decimal three places to the right).
2. Count the number of places you moved the decimal:
We moved it 3 places.
3. Since we moved the decimal to the right, the exponent will be negative:
\( 4.694 \times 10^{-3} \).
So, 0.004694 in scientific notation is \( 4.694 \times 10^{-3} \).
