in front of it (_______)
2) Write number without _____
3) Count the places you moved the decimal,
make the power of ____
4) Zeros behind # = __, Zeros in front # = __
Step 1
• Move decimal
• Leave only one number in front of decimal
• Number must be between 1 and 9
Step 2
• Write number without zeros
Step 3

• Zeros behind # = +, Zeros in front # = -
The power of ten is 7 because the decimal
moved 7 places.
