the temperature of the Sun at its center is about 2.7 * 10 exponent 7 degrees Fahrenheit. What is this temperature written in decimal notation?

1 answer

To convert \( 2.7 \times 10^7 \) degrees Fahrenheit to decimal notation, you multiply 2.7 by \( 10^7 \), which is 10,000,000.

So:

\[ 2.7 \times 10^7 = 2.7 \times 10,000,000 = 27,000,000 \]

Thus, the temperature of the Sun at its center in decimal notation is 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
