II. Scientific Notation a x 10 n A. a must be between 1 and 10 B. n = how many times you move the decimal

II. Scientific Notation a x 10 n A. a must be between 1 and 10 B. n = how many times you move the decimal C. 100 = 1 S 4. 0 x 100 = 4. 0 x 1 = 4. 0 S Since the exponent is 0, you move the decimal 0 times

II. Scientific Notation HELPFUL HINT: If the exponent after the 10 is positive, the number is bigger than 1. If the exponent after the 10 is negative, the number is smaller than 1.
