Question

What is the Scientific notation to 0.0000855 and 855,000

Answer 1

To solve for scientific notation you move the decimal to the left until you hit a whole number. In your case it’s 5. So when you write it it’s 8.55*10^-5. It’s -5 because you’re having to move the decimal to the left. (Left is negative and right is positive). Hope this helps!
