Question

7. How do you write 6E
–
7 in scientific notation?

Answer 1

The notation "6E–7" represents the number \( 6 \times 10^{-7} \) in scientific notation.

In scientific notation, the format is \( a \times 10^n \), where \( a \) is a number usually between 1 and 10, and \( n \) is an integer.

So, 6E–7 is already in scientific notation as \( 6.0 \times 10^{-7} \).
