Question

Write 337,060 in expanded form using exponents

Answer 1

1. expand using place value.

337,060 = 300,000 + 30,000 + 7,000 + 000 + 60 + 0

Next, we will use exponents:

300,000 = 3 * 10^5

30,000 = 3 * 10^4

7,000 = 7 * 10^3

000 = 0 * 10^2

60 = 6 * 10

0 = 0 * 10^0

then after combing these exponents, we can write the number as:

337,060 = 3 * 10^5 + 3 * 10^4 + 7 * 10^3 + 0 * 10^2 + 6 * 10 + 0 * 10^0

Finally, removing the meaningless zeroes, we would end up with:

337,060 = 3 * 10^5 + 3 * 10^4 + 7 * 10^3 + 6 * 10
