Identify significant digit:
Identify the most significant digit in
0.00099163
0.00099163
0.00099163
, which is
9
9
9
.
Move decimal point:
Move the decimal point so that it is after the first significant digit, which gives us
9.9163
9.9163
9.9163
.
Count decimal places moved:
Count how many places we moved the decimal point to get from
0.00099163
0.00099163
0.00099163
to
9.9163
9.9163
9.9163
. We moved it
4
4
4
places to the right.
Calculate power of
10
10
10
:
Since we moved the decimal to the right, the power of
10
10
10
will be negative. So, we multiply
9
9
9
by
10
10
10
to the power of
−

4
.
Round to single digit:
Round
9.9163
9.9163
9.9163
to a single digit, which is already
9
9
9
, so no change is needed.
