recall, for the scientific notation, it has to be using some power of 10, and the exponent of the base 10, is how many slots you're away from the <u>decimal point</u>. 0.007 uses 10⁻³ because 7.0 or 7. when we make it 0.007, we have to move the decimal point from in front of the 7 3 slots over to the left. Likewise, the 7000 is using 10³, because we moved the dot from 7. to 7000. , namely 3 slots to the right.
the missing value is there in the middle, notice is "7".
well, we can say that 7 is using 10⁰, however most of the time the 10⁰ is omitted and we settle for 7 alone, however scientific notation wise, that'd be it.
