what is 36,200,000 written in scientific notation
2 answers
3.62 x 10^7
count the zeros: 5
so, we have
362*10^5
But scientific notation requires a number between 1 and 10 up front, so divde 362 by 100 to get 3.62, then add 2 to the power of 10 to compensate for the 100 you divided by:
3.62*10^7

362*10^5
