Today we will…
1. Learn about scientific notation
2. See the effect of adding 40
zeros to a number.
Scientific Notation
Used to write very
big
and very small numbers.
Scientific Notation
•Move the decimal place so that the
number is between 1 and 10
•Count how many spaces you moved
the decimal point
•If you moved it to the left, the
exponent is positive; to the right, it
is negative.

Adding:
If the exponents are the same,
add the factors and leave the
exponents alone.
Scientific Notation
Adding numbers is easy if the
exponent is the same.

Scientific Notation
If the exponents are not the
same, you have to move the
decimal point on one of the
numbers to make them the
same.
