1) 2.5 x 10³
2) 2.5 x 10⁻³
3) 2.5 x 10⁰
4) 2.5 x 10⁶

Answer 1

The correctly formatted scientific notation is option 4) 2.5 x 10^6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correctly formatted scientific notation is option 4) 2.5 x 106. In scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal number between 1 and 10, multiplied by a power of 10. In this case, 2.5 is the decimal number, and 106 represents multiplying by 10 six times, or moving the decimal point six places to the right.
