Question

suppose some computations were done on a calculator. the result displayed was 6.74e38 for one computation. the result displayed was 2.426e-28 for another computation. write these numbers in scientific notation. (a) 6.74e38 = (b) 2.426e-28 =

Explanation:

Step1: Convert E notation to scientific form

$6.74\text{E}38 = 6.74 \times 10^{38}$

Step2: Convert E notation to scientific form

$2.426\text{E}-28 = 2.426 \times 10^{-28}$

Answer:

(a) $6.74 \times 10^{38}$
(b) $2.426 \times 10^{-28}$
