Scientific notation is simply a way of writing very large or very small numbers. In scientific notation every number is reperesented as a * 10ⁿ where decimal number a is greater than 1 and lesser than 10. We will provide some examples on how to convert numbers to scientific notation.

Convert 7823.5 to scientific notation.

In this example, we need to convert a number greater than 10, thus we'll move the decimal point three spaces to the left. Because the decimal is moved three places, n = 3.

The result is:

$$ 7823.5 = 7.8235 \times 10^3 $$
