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 6 zeros and 2 non zero, therefore the magnitude or the degree of the scientific notation is 8. The non-zero number excluding the last digit will be written in decimal point.
