Step-by-step explanation:

3,876,943,000

Put the decimal at the end

3,876,943,000.

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

3.876943000

We moved it 9 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the left, so the exponent is positive

The three zeros at the end can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the right of the decimal

3.876943x10^9

0.0007317

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

00007.317

We moved it 4 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the right, so the exponent is negative

The four zeros at the left can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the left of the whole number

7.317x10^-4
