Question

Convert the number to standard notation. 8.85 × 10−3 =

Answer 1

`8.85* 10^(-3)=0.00885`, is the required standard notation.

Explanation:

A number can be given in the form of scientific notation as :

`N=x* 10^y`

x is any real number

y is any integer

The given number is
`8.85* 10^(-3)`. It is given in scientific notation. We need to convert in into standard notation. It has 10 raise to power minus three. So,

`8.85* 10^(-3)=(885)/(100)* 10^(-3)\\\\=885* 10^(-2)* 10^(-3)\\\\=885* 10^(-5)\\\\=0.00885`

So,
`8.85* 10^(-3)=0.00885`, is the required standard notation.
