Question

one source claims earth is approximately 91,650,000 miles from the sun at the closest point in its orbit which shows 91,650,000 written in scientific notation

Answer 1

Answer:

The scientific notation of 91,650,000 is $9.165\times 10^7$.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given than earth is approximately 91,650,000 miles from the sun at the closest point in its orbit.

Scientific notation of a number is a mathematical expression, that is used to represent a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by ten, so you can write large numbers using less digits.

The given distance is 91,650,000.

Scientific notation is

$91,650,000=9.165\times 10,000,000$

$91,650,000=9.165\times 10^7$

Therefore the scientific notation of 91,650,000 is $9.165\times 10^7$.

Answer 2

91,650,000 = 9.165 * 10 ^ 7
