A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.

Split the quotient as follows:

Applying the Quotient of Powers Rule:

However,   is not in scientific notation, since . Adjust by noting that ; substituting and applying the Product of Powers Rule:

A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.

To find , apply the Power of a Product Rule, then the Product of Powers Rule, as follows:

However, since , this number is not in scientific notation. Adjust by noting that , then applying the Product of Powers Rule again:

,

the correct response.

When rounding to the nearest thousand, look to the hundreds place to determine whether you need to round up or down. You always round down when the digit is between 0 and 4, and up when it is between 5-9. Therefore, the rounded number is 902,000. When using scientific notation, the first number in the notation must be less than 10. In this case, that number is 9.

From there, the decimal goes immediately after. Then count how many places the decimal would have to be moved in order to convert back to the original number (5 places).

When the decimal is moved to the left when writing it in scientific notation, the exponent is positive. When moved to the right to write the number in scientific notation, the exponent is negative. 

First, rewrite 200,000,000 as a number in scientific notation. A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.

200,000,000 can be rewritten by adding the implied decimal point to the end of the number, and move it to the left until it follows the first nonzero digit - the "2" - as seen below:

Since the decimal point was moved 8 places to the left to form the number 2, the number, expressed in scientific notation, is .

Therefore, . By the Negative Exponent Rule , 

, so

Applying the Power of a Product Property, we get

Applying the Negative Exponent Rule and the Power of a Product Property on the right, we get

Therefore, .

Applying the Power of a Product Property:

Applying the Product of Powers Property:

Since , this is not in scientific notation; adjust it by noting that

substituting, and applying the Product of Powers Property:

A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.

To convert 3,880,000,000,000 to scientific notation, place the implied decimal point after the final zero and move it to the left as many places as is necessary until it is after the first nonzero digit - in this case the "3". Note that the point is moved 12 places to the left.

The number in front is 3.88, the number formed. The exponent of 10 is 12 - positive since the point was moved to the left. Therefore, the number, in scientific notation, is .

A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.  

An easy way to add these numbers is to note that if  and  are both positive integers,  is the number  followed by  zeroes. Therefore, 

Add these numbers:

Since all four choices can be rewritten as 6 followed by a number of zeroes, none of them are equal to this sum. 

A number in scientific notation takes the form , where  and is an integer.

To multiply two numbers that are in scientific notation, first, use commutativity to multiply the numbers:

Applying the Product of Powers Rule on the powers of 10:

However, since , this number is not in scientific notation. Adjust by noting that , then applying the Product of Powers Rule again:

When written in scientific notation, a number will follow the format in which is between one and ten and is an integer value.

To find , take the first non-zero digit in your given number as the ones place. In 0.0004640 this would be the first 4. All subsequent digits fall into the tenths, hundredths, etc. places.

To find , we must count the number of places that is removed. In 0.0004640, the first digit of  is in the ten-thousandths place. This indicates that will be .

Together, the final scientific notation will be .
