To convert a number to scientific notation, place or move the decimal point of a number until the coefficient of the number is greater than 1 and less than 10. Record down the coefficient and count the number of steps the decimal point was moved. The number of steps moved is taken as the exponent.
In 710,000, the decimal is moved to the left 5 times. Thus, causing 710,000 to written as 7.1 times 10^5 in scientific notation.
2/4 is one you could put because 2/4 = 1/2 = 6/12, and 6/12 is less than 7/12. Glad I could help, and good luck! __________________________ __________________________ __________________________
