How do you write 0.0810 in scientific notation?

Answer 1

Answer:

8.1 * 10^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is a number with it's largest digit in the one's place and its succeeding digits following it as decimals, then multiplied by a power of ten.

Appling this knowledge to the given number, we can conclude:

= 0.081

= 8.1 * (1/10) * (1/10)

=  8.1 * 10^-1 * 10^-1

=9.1 * 10^-2
