Remaining Attempts : 3

Answer 1

To convert the scientific notation \(6.3 \times 10^{-4}\) to decimal notation, you need to move the decimal point to the left by 4 places (because of the negative exponent).

Starting with \(6.3\):

• Move the decimal point 1 place to the left: \(0.63\)
• Move it another place to the left: \(0.063\)
• Move it another place to the left: \(0.0063\)
• Move it one more place to the left: \(0.00063\)

So, \(6.3 \times 10^{-4}\) in decimal notation is \(0.00063\).
