Question

Whats 56 million in scientific notation

Answer 1

56 million is 56,000,000.

A number is written is scientific notation, if it is written as :


`x \cdot10^n`, where x is a decimal number (possibly integer), with only one digit to the left of the decimal point, and n is an integer.



thus
`56,000,000=56\cdot10^6=5.6 \cdot10 \cdot 10^6=5.6\cdot 10^7`


Answer:
`5.6\cdot 10^7`
