Question

Choose the correct representation of number 1.156 in "powers of 10" notation.

Answer 1

Answer

1.156 × 10⁰

Explanation

In indexes,

a⁰ = 1   ⇒ ㏒aⁿ  = ㏒1

               n㏒a = ㏒ 1

                n  = ㏒1/㏒a

but ㏒1 = 0

          n = 0/㏒a

             = 0

∴ So to represent 1.156 to the power of 10 it will be;

  1.156 = 1.156 × 10⁰
