Convert scientific notation to ordinary

• What does scientific notation express?

  Large or small numbers using a coefficient
• What are the two main components of scientific notation?

  Coefficient and power of 10
• What is the coefficient in scientific notation?

  The number before the "times 10" part
• How do you convert $4.7 × 10^{-1}$ to decimal form?


  Move the decimal point one place left
• What does the tiny number at the top of 10 represent in scientific notation?

  It is called an exponent
• What is the effect of multiplying 4.7 by 0.1?

  It reduces the size of the number
• What does a minus sign in the exponent indicate?

  It means to make the number smaller
• What are the components of scientific notation?

  • A number with a decimal point
  • An exponent (tiny number at the top)
  • A base of 10
• What does moving the decimal point to the left indicate when converting scientific notation?

  It makes the number smaller
• What is the ordinary number equivalent of 4.7 × 10⁻¹?


  0.47
• How do you convert the scientific notation 4.7 × 10⁻¹ to an ordinary number?

  Move the decimal one place to the left
• What are the steps to convert scientific notation to an ordinary number?

  1. Identify the coefficient
  2. Determine the exponent
  3. Move the decimal point

  • Left for negative exponents
  • Right for positive exponents
• What does moving the decimal point to the right indicate when converting scientific notation?

  It makes the number larger
• Why does moving the decimal point left affect the exponent?

  It makes the number smaller, matching the negative exponent
• How does the coefficient and base work together in scientific notation?

  They express numbers in a compact form
• What is the purpose of scientific notation?

  To write big or small numbers easily
• What is the base in scientific notation?

  Always 10, raised to an exponent
• How does a positive exponent affect the conversion of scientific notation?

  It indicates moving the decimal right
• What is the purpose of writing a number in standard form?

  To express numbers in a consistent format
• What is the concept behind the "number sliding game" in relation to exponents?

  • Moving the decimal left shrinks the number
  • Negative exponents indicate this movement
• What does the number sliding game help with?

  It helps in writing numbers in standard form
• How does the number 4.7 × 10⁻¹ change when applying the exponent?

  It becomes 0.47
• How does a negative exponent affect the conversion of scientific notation?

  It indicates moving the decimal left
• What is the first step in converting scientific notation to an ordinary number?

  Identify the coefficient
• What is the second step in converting scientific notation to an ordinary number?

  Determine the exponent
• What is the result of moving the decimal point left in $4.7 \times 10^{-1}$?


  It gives us 0.47
• What does an exponent of -1 indicate?

  Divide the coefficient by 10
• What is the decimal form of $4.7 × 10^{-1}$?


  0.47
• What does a negative exponent signify in terms of decimal movement?

  It means moving the decimal point left
