When using scientific notation, you only want one number to be in front of the decimal place. If you have to make the number smaller, then the 10^nth power will be positive. If you have to make the number bigger, then 10^nth power will be negative. Example:
0.54 --> 5.4 * 10^-1
35 --> 3.5 * 10^1
The value of n depends on how many spaces the decimal point needs to be moved. For your question, putting 23 in scientific notation would look like this:
23 --> 2.3 * 10^1
<span>=<span>49</span></span><span>(Decimal: 0.444444)</span>
That's so easy sorry for saying that The answer is 333.8
A^8 * b^12
The exponent 4 is distributed to the other exponents within the parenthesis by multiplication.
a^2*4 * b^3*4
a^8 * b^12
