Question

I'm confused on how to convert the numbers into a number. For example the first one is: '3.42 L' would I just write it as '342'? Then I'm also confused to what would I write it as for scientific notation. Same thing for problem B, would the number just be written as 138? And for the scientific notation wouldnt it go back 4 places so it would be '1380.' ?

Expert Solution
Step 1

To write 6000 in scientific notation, first write the number with only one digit to the left of the decimal point, which in this case is 6.000. Next, count the number of places the decimal point must be moved to return to the original number, which in this case is five. This number will be the exponent on the power of ten. So 6000 can be expressed in scientific notation as 6 x 103.
