Question

Express the number 0.00001038 in scientific notation

Answer 1

10.38 times 10 to the negative 6th power

Explanation:

Answer 2

For this case it is observed that the "zeros" are to the left of the expression, therefore the exponent, to be expressed in scientific notation, will be negative. That is to say:

`10.38 * 10^ {- 6}`

This means that by running the decimal 6 spaces to the left we will get the initial expression.

ANswer:

`10.38 * 10^( - 6)`
