Answer:

1/100 to 25/100

0.01 to 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Pennies are also known as one per cent. Cent refers to 100 and pennies are called one per cent because they value 1 out of 100. 100 pennies equal one dollar.

Similarly, one quarter is 1/4 of a dollar and 1/4 equals 25/100 when multiplying the numerator and denominator by 25.

Hi! I'm happy to help!

To solve this, we first need to know what scientific notation is. Scientific notation is a way a number is written. You write it using a number ranging from 1 to <10. Then, you multiply this number by $10^{x}$ .

In order to make this number reasonable for scientific notation, you have to move the decimal a certain amount of places. In this case you move it 3 places to the right to make your number 2.349. Since we moved it 3 places to the right our x will be -3. (If we'd moved it 3 places to the left, our x would be positive 3.)

So now, we insert our numbers:

2.349· $10^{-3}$
