The number 13.132639 can be expressed in exponential form (using scientific notation) as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.

To convert 13.132639 into scientific notation:

  1. Move the decimal point one place to the left to get a number between 1 and 10: 1.3132639.
  2. Since you moved the decimal point one place to the left, you need to multiply by \(10^1\).

Thus, 13.132639 can be expressed as:
