KaitlynGarrett99: what is 0.000000090072 in scientific notation?
Hi Kaitlyn,
First you put 1 non zero digit in front of the decimal point so that's 9.0072
Now your number is really tiny so the exponent is going to be negative.
You have to jump over 8 digits (put the loops in, it helps) to get the point from where it is now to where you want it to be (that's after the nine)
so your answer is
9.0072 x 10
-8
