Given the number:

7,000,000,000

Write in scientific notation.

Solution:

In order to change a number in standard form to scientific notation, simply count the number of zeros and non zeros excluding the final digit. The given number has a total of 9 zeros and 0 non zero, therefore the magnitude or the degree of the scientific notation is 9.The non-zero number excluding the last digit will be written in decimal point, in our case, since we have none, therefore we can equate without a decimal point.

= 7,000,000,000

= 7 x 10^9

Final answer:

= 7 x 10^9
