Question

how do you write 0.00000000000000044261 in scientific notation?
× 10

Explanation:

Step1: Move decimal point

Move the decimal point to the right until we get a number between 1 and 10. For 0.00000000000000044261, we get 4.4261.

Step2: Count decimal - point movement

We moved the decimal point 16 places to the right. Since the original number is less than 1, the exponent of 10 is negative. So the exponent is - 16.

Answer:

$4.4261\times10^{-16}$
