Question

a dinosaur fossil is 92,170,000 years old. How can you express this age in scientific notation with the highest level of precision?

Answer 1

B. 9.217x10^7 that is the answer

Answer 2

Answer: Its age is expressed as
`9.217* 10^7`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Age of dinosaur fossil = 92170000 years old

We need to write in scientific notation with the highest level of precision.

Since we know that Scientific notation means put the decimal just after unit digit and for all remaining digit there is to the power of 10.

So, it becomes,

`92170000=9.217* 10^7`

Hence, its age is expressed as
`9.217* 10^7`
