Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given a number in scientific notation 8.67×108.67 \times10^{-} . We need to convert this number from scientific notation to standard notation.

STEP 2

The general form of a number in scientific notation is a×10na \times10^n, where 1a<101 \leq |a| <10 and nn is an integer. In this case, a=8.67a =8.67 and n=2n = -2.

STEP 3

To convert a number from scientific notation to standard notation, we move the decimal point in aa to the right if nn is positive, and to the left if nn is negative. The number of places we move the decimal point is equal to the absolute value of nn.

STEP 4

Since n=2n = -2 in this case, we move the decimal point in 8.678.67 two places to the left.

STEP 5

Moving the decimal point two places to the left in 8.678.67 gives us 0.08670.0867.
So, 8.67×102=0.08678.67 \times10^{-2} =0.0867.
