Question

Write 0.001574 in scientific notation

Answer 1

Answer:

0.001574 in scientific notation  is 1.574 × 10^-3

Step-by-step explanation:

All numbers in scientific notation or standard form are written in the form m × 10n, where m is a number between 1 and 10 ( 1 ≤ |m| < 10 ) and the exponent n is a positive or negative integer.

To convert 0.001574 into scientific notation, follow these steps:

Move the decimal 3 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 1.574, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative

n = -3

Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n

= 1.574 × 10^-3

Therefore, the decimal number 0.001574 written in scientific notation is 1.574 × 10^-3 and it has 4 significant figures.

Hope this helped!!!
