Scientific notation is nothing but exponential notation of a number in which a number is represented in the form of $a \times 10^{b}$ where b is the exponent b is an integer and the coefficient a is any real number called the significant or mantissa.

Scientific notation makes our work very easy, since it is very easy to compare and write the number by using this form.

Significant figures are the numbers in written in positional notation are digits that carry meaningful contributions to any of its measurements. This includes all the numbers expect all leading zeros or trailing zeros.
