Full solution

Q. How do you write 475475 in scientific notation?\newline______×10______\_\_\_\_\_\_ \times 10^{\_\_\_\_\_\_}
  1. Identify most significant digit: Identify the most significant digit in 475475. The most significant digit is 44 because it is the first non-zero digit from the left.
  2. Place decimal point: Place the decimal point after the most significant digit to create a number between 11 and 1010. By placing the decimal after the 44, we get 4.754.75.
  3. Count decimal point movement: Count the number of places the decimal point has moved from its original position to its new position.\newlineThe decimal point has moved 22 places to the left to get from 475475 to 4.754.75.
  4. Write number as product: Write the number as a product of the number found in Step 22 and 1010 raised to the power of the number of places the decimal point moved.\newlineSince the decimal point moved 22 places, we write 475475 as 4.75×1024.75 \times 10^2.
