Expert Solution

Step 1

Scientific notation is a way of writing numbers or values of variables so that it became easy to learn and understand. Scientific notation is a universal way of writing numbers in a proper manner. To convert any number to scientific notation we just have to write that number into the power of 10 and keeping a single number between 1 to 9 before the decimal.

On further converting as,

1. Converting 0.005 to scientific notation as,

$0.005 = 5 \times 10^{- 3}$

Thus, the scientific notation for 0.005 is 5 x 10^-3.

2. Converting 5050 to scientific notation as,

$5050 = 5.050 \times 10^{3}$

Thus, the scientific notation for 5050 is 5.050 x 10³.
