Write 124 in scientific notation.

1.24 * 10²

Step-by-step explanation:

Always keep one digit number (from 1 - 9) behind the decimal.

And add "*10" with the power of how many decimals it took to go from right to left.

124.

12.4 (one)

1.24 (two)

So the power is ².

1.24 * 10²

Step-by-step explanation:

Write 124 in scientific notation.

Then, in scientific notation, 124 is written as 1.24 * 102. Actually, converting between "regular" notation and scientific notation is even simpler than I just showed, because all you really need to do is count decimal places.
