1 answer:

5 0

Converting a number to its scientific notation with two significant figures gives 5.5x10^3. Scientific notation is used to denote large or complicated numbers more easily. It basically involves shortening the number by moving the decimal point. A "10^n" is then included to make sure that the number is still the same. Sometimes, writing the scientific notation also requires rounding off the number.
