PART A:
Scientific notation is given in the form of
Where
is a value in unit and 
is an integer
<span>0.000025 is not a unit number [the number before the decimal point is of zero value]
0.000025 = 2.5 </span>÷ 100,000
100,000 can be written as 10⁵
0.000025 = 2.5 ÷ 10⁵ ⇒ to write this in form of multiplication form, we change 10⁵ to 10⁻⁵
0.000025 = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵

PART B:
<span>
The diameter of a grain of sand </span>÷<span> the diameter of the average cell in the human body
= [2</span>×10⁻⁴] ÷ [1×10⁻⁵]
= [2÷1] × [10⁻⁴×10⁻⁵]
= 2×10 ⁽⁻⁴ ⁻ ⁽⁻⁵⁾⁾ = 2 × 10¹
= 20
<span>
answer: 20 times bigger
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART C
Diameter of average cell in human body = 1 </span>× 10⁻⁵ meter
1 meter = 1 × 10⁹ nanometer
1 × 10⁻⁵ meter = [1 × 10⁻⁵] × [1 × 10⁹] = 1 × 10⁽⁻⁵⁺⁹⁾ = 1 × 10⁴ = 10000 nanometer
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART D
1 meter = 1 × 10⁹ nanometer
300 nanometer = 300 ÷ [1 × 10⁹] = [3×10²] ÷ [1×10⁹] = [3÷1] × [10²÷10⁷] = 3 × 10⁻⁵
Answer: 3 × 10⁻⁵ meter
