Use scientific notation to determine which of these numbers has the least value: 98,789,000; 987,890,000; or 89,987,000. Write your answer in scientific notation, expressed to the exact decimal place. (1 point)

Answer 1

To determine which number has the least value, we need to convert each number to scientific notation.

- 98,789,000 = 9.8789 × 10^7
- 987,890,000 = 9.8789 × 10^8
- 89,987,000 = 8.9987 × 10^7

From these values, we can see that 9.8789 × 10^7 = 98,789,000 has the least value.
