whats 2500000 in standard form?
about like 20 feet
100 ---> 1*10^2
150 ---> 1.5*10^2
2500 ---> 2.5*10^3
2500000 ---> 2.5*10^6
So basically it has to be in the format:
(number from 1-10)*10^n
where n is the number of left shifts of the decimal point in order to get to a number between 1 and 10.
\(2500000=2.5*10^6\)
As you have it written:
2,500,000 This is in standard form.
2.5 x 10^6 This is in scientific notation.
