Scientific Notation
Scientists use scientific notation to write very small and very large numbers. Scientific notation allows a very large or very small number to be written as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of ten. By expressing numbers in this way, scientific notation makes calculating easier. Use the links below to find out more about scientific notation and do some practice problems.
