Frequently Asked Questions
- Scientific notation expresses numbers as a × 10ⁿ where 1 ≤ |a| < 10. 93,000,000 miles = 9.3 × 10⁷. 0.000045 = 4.5 × 10⁻⁵. Makes extreme-scale numbers readable.
- Engineering notation requires exponents in multiples of 3 (kilo=10³, mega=10⁶, giga=10⁹, milli=10⁻³, micro=10⁻⁶). This aligns with standard SI prefixes used in electronics.
