Answer :

3.25 x 10^-6 written in decimal notation  is 0.00000325

Solution:

Decimal notation is simply a form of a number using a decimal point

Given number : [tex]3.25 \times 10^{-6}[/tex]

Steps to follow:

In order to convert a number written in scientific notation to one written in standard or decinal notation, follow these steps:

  • Write the given scientific notation number
  • Use the sign and numerical value of the exponent (power) to determine the direction and number of places to move the decimal place.
  • Move the decimal point to the right if the exponent is positive.
  • Move the decimal point to the left if the exponent is negative.

To convert to decimal notation:

Multiply the decimal number by 10 raised to the power indicated.

[tex]\rightarrow 3.25 \times 10^{-6}[/tex]

Here the exponent of 10 is -6

So the decimal point is moved 6 places to right

[tex]\rightarrow 3.25 \times 10^{-6} = 0.00000325[/tex]
