Transcribed Image Text:**Question 6:** Convert \(1.345 \times 10^{-12}\) milliliters to regular notation.
**Solution:**
To convert \(1.345 \times 10^{-12}\) to regular notation, move the decimal point 12 places to the left because the exponent is negative. This gives:
0.000000000001345 milliliters.
Therefore, \(1.345 \times 10^{-12}\) milliliters in regular notation is \(0.000000000001345\) milliliters.
Expert Solution

Step 1
There are two types of notations used while writing a number.
1. Regular notation
2. Scientific notation
Regular notation : integral notation we just write the number directly for example the number given below is written in the form of regular notation 0.000000000056 or 5.56700000
These are regular forms of writing the number.
Scientific notation: instead of writing the number directly in scientific notation we write the number in the form N × 10n
For example 1.345 × 1021.
